Preparation duration: 25 minutes

Cooking duration: 15 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup cane sugar

4 egg whites (feel free to use liquid eggs whites)

1 cup shelled pistachios

1 cup raspberries, washed and thoroughly dried (or frozen raspberries, unthawed)

Use white rice flour instead of unbleached all-purpose flour.

1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)

Use dairy-free buttery shortening instead of butter. I use Earth Balance's Vegan Buttery Sticks.

Equipment:

muffin liners

oven

food processor

bowl

mixing bowl

whisk

frying pan

wire rack

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease mini muffin cups with cooking spray, or line with paper cups, and set aside.Put the pistachios and flour in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse powder. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the cane sugar, brown sugar, and baking powder and whisk together. Add the egg whites and whisk until they are fully incorporated and the mixture is crumbly and somewhat sticky. Mix in the melted butter. At this point, the batter can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.When ready to bake the financiers, drop a tablespoonful of dough in each muffin cup. Top each financier with a raspberry. Bake for about 15 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through, until the financiers are golden brown on the edges. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.Serve the financiers sprinkled with powdered sugar, and topped with an extra fresh raspberry (or thawed frozen raspberry), if desired.Financiers are at their very best eaten the day they are baked, though they can certainly bear an overnight stay in an airtight container. Or, if you dont plan to eat all the financier the day theyre baked, keep the extra batter in an airtight container and use it within the next two days.

If you want to speed up the ripening of a pineapple, so that you can eat it faster, then you can do it by standing it upside down (on the leafy end).

Food Joke

Two guys were sitting in a bar getting really drunk. After awhile, just drinking gets boring, so the first guy looks at the second guy and says, "Hey, you want to go up for a ride in my airplane?" The second guy says, "Wow, you have an airplane? Let's go!" So they get some more beer and go for a tour around the city in the plane. Eventually they get bored with this too, so they decide to land. The drunk pilot starts circling around looking for a place to land, and he sees an airstrip close by. He says his new buddy along for the ride, "Let's land here. It looks like it's as good a place as any." So he circles around and goes in for a landing, but at the last minute he swerves and pulls back up. "Shit!" he says, "That is the SHORTEST runway I have ever seen! How is anyone supposed to land on it?" But since it's the only runway nearby, he decides to try again, with the same result. Getting pretty irritated, the pilot says to his friend, "All right, I'm going to try ONE more time, and if I can't land it we're just going to crash and hope we don't die." So they end up crashing, and miraculously neither is hurt. When they crawl out of the wreckage, the first guy is swears and gesticulates wildly at the runway. "I'm gonna find whoever designed this crazy runway and wring his neck! He must be total moron! No one could land on anything that short!" The second guy looks around and says "Yeah, but look how wide it is!"
