Have you ever heard of an almond puff? Me either...at least until a few weeks ago. I happened to be doing some research for work and came across a recipe for one. I was intrigued...I love almonds and I love baked goods and I love puffy things...ok, maybe I don't love puffy things, but it seemed like the right thing to say. :)
Anyway, it turns out that almond puffs are delicious!!! And relatively easy to make. If you are looking for a dessert/breakfast item to wow guests, this is the one. I found this recipe on the King Arthur Flour website and am posting the recipe link below. Enjoy and just an FYI, this one isn't too healthy...but a small little slice is enough...especially with a cup of coffee...just a suggestion. :)
