How it's done

Dough

Mix the almonds, coconut palm sugar and gingerbread spice in a bowl. Beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff. Using a rubber spatula, carefully fold in the almond mixture. Empty the icing sugar into a deep dish. Divide the dough into 15 portions, shape into balls, toss the balls in the icing sugar. Transfer the balls to a baking tray lined with baking paper, making sure they are well spaced out, then flatten slightly.

Bake

Approx. 15 mins. in the centre of an oven preheated to 150 °C. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly on the tray, transfer to a cooling rack and leave to cool completely.
