-
Add phytin in a frying pan and roast the almonds, then let them cool down on a piece of paper and transfer them to a blender and blend them, until you have chunk pieces.
-
Use the mixer’s paddle (if you have) to beat the phytin for 8 minutes, until it fluffs up.
-
Then, add the icing sugar and continue beating, for another 8 minutes. The mixture should be white and fluffy.
-
Remove the mixer’s bowl and add the vanilla (either 3 pieces of vanillin or a little of vanilla extract) and the almonds and mix gently.
-
Gradually add the flour with a spatula.
-
Firstly, shape into round pieces, 35 grams each and then form them in the preferable shape.
-
Lay a parchment paper on 2 baking pans, place the pieces on them and bake in preheated oven, at 180℃, set on fan, for 35 minutes, depending on the oven.
-
When ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool down, for at least 2 hours.
-
Add a lot of icing sugar on a baking pan or a platter, place the kourabiedes on it and then sprinkle icing sugar on them, until they are well covered.
