Galette des rois with almond cream {milk free option}
Voici venue l’heure des galettes des rois… le mois de Janvier. Oui parce que je pense que je ne suis pas la seule à aimer manger des galettes et autres brioches des rois pendant tout le mois de janvier, ma préférée : la galette des rois à la crème d’amande. Plus légère que la frangipane, qui est en fait une crème d’amande associée à une crème pâtissière, cette galette des rois est parfaite pour les amateurs d’amande. Une galette des rois un peu comme un pithiviers, devenu un basique à la maison en cette période d’épiphanie, a recipe that Mr. and I always enjoy ! And then this version of pancake, you can always customize it as you wish by adding candied orange, lemon zest or chocolate chips, in short, a basic to know by heart !
So who will be the king/queen this year?… ? Happy Epiphany !
- 155 g ground almonds
- 155 g of softened butter or vegetable margarine
- 100 grams of sugar
- 3 medium eggs + 1 jaune
- A few drops of bitter almond extract
- 2 puff pastry rolls (pure butter or vegetable)
- 1 or 2 beans
- 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (optional)
- Beat the butter (or margarine) until it becomes ointment. Then add the almond powder and sugar to form a smooth and homogeneous mixture..
- Add the eggs one by one then mix. Put a few drops of bitter almond in the mixture or rum if you prefer !
- Put the mixture in a piping bag.
- Preheat the oven to 180°.
- Spread the first puff pastry on a baking sheet.
- Add the almond cream forming a snail and stop at 3 cm you board. Add the beans.
- Wet them with water 3 cm edge and place the second roll of dough on top. Apply pressure to seal the edges of the dough well and fold with the back of a knife.
- Brush the pancake with the egg yolk.
- Then decorate the edges and the top with the blade of a knife.
- Put in the oven for about 30 min so that the pancake is nicely browned.
- Brush with maple syrup straight out of the oven to obtain a shiny pancake like the pastry chef's..
