Directions

  1. 1Put melted butter, orange juice, and freshly grated orange zest into a bowl and stir well.
  2. 2In another bowl, place sifted powdered sugar, flour, and toasted ground almonds and stir to combine.
  3. 3Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones and stir with a whisk until the mixture becomes uniform.
  4. 4Put a teaspoon of the tuile batter onto a paper-lined baking tray and spread with the back of a spoon to make a thin oval shape approximately 10 cm (4 inches) long.
  5. 5Ensure at least 5 cm (2 inches) space between tuiles as they will spread while baking.
  6. 6Bake until done.
  7. 7Transfer the hot tuiles with a small spatula onto a rolling pin and leave them to cool there to get a curved shape.

Tips

  • Tuiles must be curved while they are hot, otherwise they will crack and break.
  • Leave at least 5 cm (2 inches) space between tuiles on the baking tray because they will spread while baking.
  • Make tuiles evenly thin so they cook evenly.
