Makes 24
2 egg whites
1 c caster sugar
1 1/2 tsp honey
1 tsp vanilla paste
zest of a lemon, orange or grapefruit
3 c ground almonds
1/2 tsp sea salt flakes
1/2 c icing sugar
Preheat oven to 180C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
Beat egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Add sugar and beat until thick and glossy. Mix in honey, vanilla and zest.
Stir in the almonds and salt with a spoon or spatula until just combined. It will be a soft and sticky dough.
Spread icing sugar on a plate. Roll dough into tablespoon size balls and roll in the icing sugar, making sure it is well covered. Place on the trays spaced apart.
Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and leave to cool on the tray. The outsides will be firm but the centres will be soft.
