Creamy EASY Vegan Almond Frangipane (6 Ingredients!)
Sweet, smooth, melt-in-your-mouth luxury: this vegan almond frangipane is creamy and so easy.
Equipment
- 1 stand mixer
Ingredients
- 100 g vegan butter
- 100 g caster sugar
- 2 tablespoon potato starch
- 4 tablespoon water
- 100 g almond flour
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
- If necessary, make caster sugar: You should use caster sugar for this recipe. If you don’t have any on hand (I never do), blitz your sugar in a blender or coffee grinder for 5 - 10 seconds to mill some of the sugar grains a bit more finely.
- Cream your butter and sugar together. If you’re mixing by hand, it will help to leave the butter out to soften slightly, or blitz in the microwave for 5 - 10 second to very lightly soften it.
- Make your potato starch “eggs” by thoroughly mixing potato starch and water. The ratio of potato starch to water is 1:2 (for one egg, 1 tablespoon potato starch + 2 tablespoon water). Add the starch eggs to the creamed butter and sugar and mix in.
- Mix in almond flour and almond extract.
Notes
Caster sugar is worth the extra effort here! It dissolves better into the mixture and contributes a better texture. This sugar is finer than standard granulated sugar but courser than powdered sugar.
