4 large free-range egg whites

350g caster sugar

icing sugar

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 170ºC/gas 3, and grease and line two baking sheets.
  2. In a bowl, whisk the egg whites until firm. Gently fold in the sugar, almonds and amaretto to make a smooth paste.
  3. Using a teaspoon or a piping bag, place dollops of the mixture on the trays, 2cm apart.
