Hazelnut financier
Roast the chopped hazelnuts as well as the hazelnut powder, then let cool to around 20°C. Put the flours in a mixer, together with the icing sugar and baking powder. Mix using the paddle attachment, then add the egg whites tempered to 25°C and lightly emulsify. Add the butter at 40°C without emulsifying too much. Keep cool overnight before use. Bake at 170°C in a fan-assisted oven for about 5 minutes, twice.
