Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a dessert for everybody who watches their waistline but likes to eat something sweet. I recommend muffins which look like normal muffins, but hold a secret: a thin almond hull and a lot of fruit inside. This muffins look very inconspicuous, but it is only to confuse the enemy. You only need one bite and you failed... miserably. I'm sure that one muffin is not enough. I filled my muffins with blueberries. You could use also bilberries, gooseberries and currants. Make these muffins in your home; they are worth it.
Ingredients:
dough
100g of flour
4 tablespoons of minced almonds
100g of butter
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons of caster sugar
filling
200g of blueberries
2 tablespoons of flour
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Wash the blueberries, drain them and mix with the flour and sugar.
Heat the oven up to 180C. Smooth 8 muffin cases with butter and sprinkle with flour.
Chop the butter. Add the egg yolk, flour and caster sugar. Quickly knead into a smooth dough. Cover with plastic wrap and leave in the fridge for an hour. Roll the dough out. Cut rings from the dough with a glass. Cover the muffin cases with the rings. Put some blueberries onto them. Cover them with the rings. Glue the edges together. Cut a small hole in every top ring. Bake for 20 minutes.
Sprinkle with the caster sugar before serving.
Enjoy your meal!
