Will use this as a fast dessert as it was so easy. The cake is so moist and tight crumb. Would be perfect with fresh fruit. I did turn it down from 450 to 350 after 10 minutes, cooked 7 more...turned off oven and let set 7 more. I always try to under cook a cake on first time to get to know recipes. If it's overcooked, you just wasted time & money. All ovens are different. Super Yummy!!

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan 1 cup almonds, lightly toasted (4 1/2 ounces) 1 2/3 cups confectioners’ sugar, plus more for dusting 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt Finely grated zest of 1 orange 6 large egg whites, lightly beaten Candied Orange Peelfor garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Brush the inside of a 13 1/2-by-4-inch tart pan that has a nonremovable bottom with melted butter; transfer to freezer.

Using a food processor, pulse almonds until finely ground. In a large bowl, combine ground almonds, confectioners’ sugar, flour, salt, and orange zest. Add egg whites, and whisk to combine. Slowly stir in butter.

Remove tart pan from freezer. Pour batter into pan; place on a baking sheet. Bake until dough just begins to rise, about 10 minutes. Reduce oven heat to 400 degrees and continue baking 7 to 8 minutes more, until financier begins to brown. Turn off oven, and let cake stand in oven until firm, about 10 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

Invert financier onto rack; reinvert, and slice into 6 pieces. Garnish top with candied orange peel, and dust with confectioners’ sugar.

Cook’s Notes Chilling the pan before adding the batter and baking it helps prevent sticking.
