½ c coconut sugar, blended to a powder in Nutri-bullet (or use castor sugar)
grated rind of 1 orange
2 egg whites, at room temperature, beaten until soft peaks form
1 T orange juice
slivered almonds for top
Instructions
Preheat oven to 160C.
Line a baking tray with a baking sheet or baking paper. Mix almonds, linseed, baking powder, sugar and rind together, then add the whipped egg whites and orange juice.
Scoop about ½ T of mixture and roll into small balls and place on the baking tray, allowing space in between to spread out. Continue with the rest of the mixture.
Using a damp finger, press a small hollow in the middle of each ball and sprinkle with the slivered almonds. Bake for 12-15 minutes and then cool on a wire rack. Should be slightly soft and chewy inside.
