Peach Financier Cakes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Peach Financier Cakes.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).

2. Step 2

   While that warms up, take a moment to generously grease a 12-cup mini muffin tin with butter.

3. Step 3

   For an extra touch, dust each cup with a pinch of flour, giving it a gentle shake to remove any excess.

4. Step 4

   Now, let’s bring some magic to the kitchen! In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring continuously until it becomes foamy and transforms into a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 4 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Once it reaches that perfect color, remove it from the heat and set it aside to cool slightly.

6. Step 6

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites and sugar until the mixture becomes thick and foamy, which should take around 2 to 3 minutes.

7. Step 7

   Next, gently fold in the almond meal, flour, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

8. Step 8

   Finally, pour in the browned butter, mixing everything together until it’s well combined and smooth.

9. Step 9

   Now it’s time to fill those muffin cups! Pour the batter into each cup, filling them almost to the top, and give the pan a gentle tap on the counter to release any pesky air bubbles.

10. Step 10

    Slide the pan into your preheated oven and bake for 5 minutes.

11. Step 11

    After that, take a moment to remove the pan and place a small piece of peach on top of each financier, adding a burst of fruity flavor.

12. Step 12

    Pop the pan back into the oven and continue baking for another 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops are a lovely golden brown.

13. Step 13

    Once they’re done, let the financiers cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before carefully removing them.

    Enjoy the delightful aroma and the sweet anticipation as you savor these delicious treats!.
