Equipment
- Mini cupcake/muffin tin
- Food processor
Ingredients
Financiers
- 1¼ stick Butter, unsalted
- 62 g Pistachios
- 62 g All purpose flour
- 152 g Powdered sugar plus extra for dusting
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 5 ea Egg whites
Instructions
To make the financiers:
- Melt the butter in a medium sized pot on medium high heat and then cook until brown with a nutty aroma. Allow to cool until lightly warm.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a mini cupcake/muffin tray with pan spray.
- Skip this step if you purchased pistachio flour. Combine the pistachios and flour in your food processor and grind until the pistachios are super fine like flour.
- Combine your pistachio flour in a bowl with the powdered sugar, salt, and egg whites and mix.
- Slowly whisk in the browned butter making sure to scrape in all the delicious browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Scoop or pipe into the prepared tray three-quarters of the way.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes rotating the pan halfway through. The financiers should spring back with poked when ready.
- Allow to cool before removing from the pan and dusting with powdered sugar.
