About Financier

A Financier is a small, almond-based French pastry, known for its delicate texture and buttery richness. Originating from French patisseries in the 19th century, it’s traditionally made with almond flour, egg whites, powdered sugar, melted butter, and flour, resulting in a moist, golden-brown treat often baked in rectangular molds resembling a bar of gold. While Financiers are gluten-free if made solely with almond flour, they are calorie-dense due to their high sugar and butter content. Almond flour provides healthy fats, vitamin E, and protein, making them a modest source of nutrients. However, they’re best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence owing to their low fiber and high saturated fat levels. Perfect for pairing with tea or coffee, Financiers cater to those with a sweet tooth while showcasing the refined artistry of classic French desserts.
