What you need

Amount:×1

2 cups sliced blanched almonds
2 tbsp sugar, 20 g
1 tbsp honey, 30 g
1 large egg white

How I make it

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
Warm the honey slightly.
Put the almonds in a bowl, then add the sugar, the honey and finally the egg white, and stir everything together.
With a teaspoon dipped in water, form small mounds and set them on a baking sheet about 3/4 inch (2 cm) apart.
Bake for about 30 minutes, until golden.

What I've learned

For a big batch I use another version: 4 egg whites, 1 1/4 cups sugar and 1 lb 2 oz (500 g) sliced almonds. Whisk the whites with the sugar (don't whip), gently fold in the almonds, spread cookies with two spoons and bake at 320°F (160°C) for 10-15 minutes, until golden.
For a more elegant version, I add 3.5 oz (100 g) bittersweet chocolate.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
