Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 200 g almond flour
- 150 g powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- First of all, put the almond flour in a large bowl and sift the powdered sugar over it. We sift the sugar to avoid lumps.
- Then, crack the egg, separate the yolk, and squeeze the lemon. Measure out the correct amount of lemon juice and add it along with the egg white to the bowl.
- Knead the mixture thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
- Wrap it in cellophane and let it rest in the refrigerator for about an hour.
- Finally, remove the Mazapán from the fridge and shape it as desired; we make a large log - it's a classic shape and easy to cut into bite-sized pieces!
Notes
- Almond flour: It’s the key to Mazapán, the fresher, the better - so be sure to check the expiration date!
- Lemon: We use a squeeze of fresh lemon.
- Egg: Use a super fresh egg, as it will be used raw.
- Powdered sugar
