Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Silicone baking mat or parchment paper
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Spoon
- Offset spatula
- Small Saucepan
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar and flour.
- Add the melted butter, egg whites, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the dry ingredients. Mix until you have a smooth batter.
- Using a spoon, carefully place small dollops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between them.
- Use an offset spatula to gently spread and shape each dollop of batter into thin, lace-like circles. Be creative, creating irregular shapes to resemble coral.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
- Remove the tuiles from the oven and let them cool for a minute before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. They will become crisp as they cool.
