So a few days ago I confidently announced that there are no dishes that scare me. I think its true. I see complicated dishes as a challenge and I’ve always loved a challenge. I mean, hell, I’m in law school. I’m not sure why ‘almond flour’ translates into hardcore in my mind, but it does. Today I spent $9 on almond flour (you win again Whole Foods!) and tomorrow I am attempting a fabu dessert from the Flour Cookbook. The recipe has homemade frangipane and pate brisee. The names are French which makes them sound intense. I am a little but nervous but mostly excited.
Stay tuned for some baking magic…

FYI trader joe’s has almond meal/flour for much less than the red mill brand. i’ve enjoyed baking with almond flour the few times i have. can’t wait to see your finished product!
Thanks for the tip!
Almond flour is a good ‘challenging’ flour to use – it is tricky at times, but provides great quality and possibilities. 🙂
Have fun!
Almond flour is cool! They actually sell it in bulk at the NatureMart Bulk Bin. I made cookies with peanut flour a couple weeks ago and it worked surprisingly GREAT.
