Directions: |
Directions:reheat the oven to 350 and line a baking sheet/tray with a silicone mat or parchment.
Break up the almond paste into chunks and place in a food processor.
Pulse for a minute or two to break the paste into crumbs.
Add the sugar and lemon zest to the almond paste and process again to combine and form a grainy crumb-like texture.
Add the egg white and mix to combine and bring the dough together.
Remove the blade then divide the mixture into 12 pieces -
Roll each piece of dough into a ball. Using slightly wet hands can make this easier.
Place the pine nuts in a small bowl then roll each ball of dough in the pine nuts so that they stick evenly on all sides.
Place the dough on the prepared cookie sheet/tray leaving around 2-3 inches between each cookie.
Repeat with the rest of the cookies.
Bake the cookies in the lower middle of the oven for around 12 - 15 minutes until they are a light golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
