Plum Financiers

1. 1

   Melt the butter on low heat.

2. 2

   In a bowl combine sugar, flour and almond flour and sift.

3. 3

   Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt, till stiff peaks form, then add in the flour mixture in 2-3 parts. Stir only until the batter becomes homogenous, then slowly pour in the warm melted butter, stirring all the time. Don't add all the butter at once - add it a little at a time, stirring between additions. Give it another good stir to be sure everything is well mixed, and your batter is ready.

4. 4

   Grease the molds you'll be using for baking generously with either butter or vegetable oil. I have used mini muffin tins here, which yielded to about 40 financiers. Spoon some of the batter into the tins, leaving about 3-5 mm from the top empty, as they will rise.

5. 5

   Slice the plums and gently press them into the batter, then bake at 200u00b0C oven for 10-15 minutes.

6. 6

   Remove from oven, set on the counter to cool down, then carefully remove from the tins, using the tip of the knife if needed.
