I've been experimenting in the kitchen today and it still continues. Here is one of the results - a raspberry macaron (and yes, I did make more than one!!). Macarons, if you didn't know, are the light fluffy meringue melt-in-your-mouth confectionery, originally from France.
Macarons are naturally gluten free as they use almond flour instead of a gluten flour. The exciting part about todays experiment's, for me at least, is that I made flour from fruit and used it in the macaron, replacing some of the almond flour. The flour I made was from raspberries. How cool is that - and so the little meringues taste of raspberries! With all these alternative flours out there, I thought I'd try making some for myself and this is my first attempt. I wonder what will come next?????
The theme of macarons is continuing in this kitchen, as I'm trying out a sugar free version. They are just drying now. If they are successful, you'll see them soon!
Have you ever tried using/making fruit flour?
