Almond and Apricot Financiers

Hello my lovelies!!

During summertime, I love to bake apricots. This fruit can be sweet and acid in the same time. Apricot tarts are delicious, apricot crumble are scrumptious but almond and apricot financiers are just amazing!!

So, easy at it can be 🙂 , I took two recipes by Philippe Conticini from his cookbook Sensations, I made a few adjustments and bam! Here are my almond and apricot financiers!!

Those cakes are just delish, easy to bake, you’re going to love them!!

I recommend to take ripe apricots but still firm enough so that they will keep a nice shape after the first oven baking.

With a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it will be a delicious dessert!

You can bring your own touch… Switch from almonds to hazelnuts, from apricots to peaches or nectarines… It’s a many in one recipe…

Let’s not waste more time, the recipe, Chef!
