Made with almond flour and sweetened with erythritol, these golden-brown treats are perfectly keto-friendly and gluten-free, offering a light yet decadently nutty flavor.

Ingredients
- 100 grams Almond flour
- 60 grams Erythritol (or any keto-friendly sugar substitute)
- 80 grams Butter
- 4 large Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 30 grams Almonds (sliced, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a financier or muffin pan with butter or a non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over medium heat, gently melt the butter until it turns golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma. This is known as brown butter or 'beurre noisette'. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, and baking powder. Mix until ingredients are well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they are foamy but not stiff. You do not need to beat them to peaks.
Step 5
Add the almond flour mixture to the egg whites along with the cooled brown butter and vanilla extract. Gently fold the ingredients together until you have a smooth batter.
Step 6
Spoon the batter into the prepared financier or muffin pan, filling each mold or cup about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Top each financier with a few slices of almond.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the financiers cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Keto Classic Financier as a delightful low-carb treat!
