Ingredients for almond sesame crisps
- 1 egg white from a large egg.
- 60 g sugar (¼ cup + 1 tablespoon).
- 70 g sliced almonds.
- 70 g sesame seeds (½ cup).
- ½ teaspoon orange zest (you can leave it out or use lemon zest instead).
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C).
- In a bowl, whisk the egg white and sugar well. Add the orange zest and stir.
- Add the sliced almonds and sesame seeds to the bowl and mix well.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease it lightly. Spread the mixture in a thin layer (the mixture doesn't cover the whole sheet, only part of it).
- Bake for about 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown (keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn).
- While the almond sesame crisps are still warm, score them into squares with a pizza cutter or a knife. Let them cool completely, and only then break them apart.
- Store in an airtight jar at room temperature, if there's anything left.
