Sugar Free Marzipan

I have always made my own marzipan but to be able to make it "sugar-free" is just the icing on the cake!!!

Almond paste is so delicious why not use it to make chocolate covered sweets stuffed with nuts or dried fruits. Enjoy !!!

INGREDIENTS:

180grams of Almond Flour
80 grams Sweetnz Icing (not) Sugar
2 tsp Almond Extract
6 drops Sweetnz Vanilla Stevia
1 tsp Rose Water
1 Egg White
2 tsp water

 

METHOD:

In a bowl mix together the almond flour and Icing (not) Sugar
In another bowl put the egg white, almond extract, and rose water, vanilla stevia and just mix a little with a fork.
Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture forms a ball.
If the mixture is a little too wet add a bit more almond flour, and if too dry add a little water. (Eggs and teaspoon can vary slightly)
Roll into a sausage shape and wrap in wax paper and then in a sealed container or bag and store in the fridge until needed.
This also freezes perfectly well.

Get creative and inset a cranberry or nut and coat in homemade sugar free chocolate (See our recipe)
