- If you want a more pronounced almond flavor, add a few almond extract drops.
- Fill the financier tins (usually rectangle-shaped, but it doesn’t really matter as long as they are not too deep!)
- Bake for 5 minutes, then lower temperature to 355°F and let it cook for 10 more minutes or until the financiers start looking golden!
