Almond Basket Ingredients
Method
Instructions
Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In another bowl, mix almond flour and salt together until well combined.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
Add Chocolate
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Form the Baskets
Grease a muffin tin and fill each cup with the batter, leaving enough space at the top for rising. Shape the batter to create a basket-like structure.
Decorate
Top each basket with whole almonds for decoration.
Bake
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve as a delightful treat.
