These crisp on the outside and soft in the inside cakes are a classic French dessert. Enjoy with a cup of tea or serve with any cream of your choice. Start by greasing butter into a 6 mould bakeware then place it in the fridge for at least 20 minutes. Chop your walnuts until fine, they should be as fine as possible but be careful not to mud.

Separate two egg whites from the yolks and set them aside. In a saucepan over medium heat, prepare to brown your butter by adding 60 grams of unsalted small pieces of butter into the pan and start heating it while stirring constantly. Once it starts to boil, turn the heat to medium-low. Once it starts to produce a nutty aroma sell and it is toasty brown, remove from heat.

Sieve the butter into a jar/ saucepan. In a large mixing bowl, powdered sugar, almond flour, baking powder and fine walnuts then mix the dry ingredients. Add honey and egg whites then mix well until everything comes together and you have a smooth batter. Add the browned butter, make sure the butter is warm before adding it.

Mix it well until smooth and shiny texture. Scoop the batter and fill the moulds two thirds full. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celcius for13 to 15 minutes. They should bake well and the middle of the cake should be very soft.
