Steps:
- If you're using whole peeled almonds, toast them in the oven until lightly brown. This will give a darker color and more bright flavor to amaretti.
- Once almonds reach desired color, cool them completely.
- Pulse almonds and bitter apricot kernels (if you opt to use those as in traditional Italian recipe) with sugar in a food processor as finely as you can.
- NOTE: if you are using almond flour, use confectioners sugar instead of regular sugar. This way you don't need to use a food processor. Simply mix everything in the bowl.
- Add almond extract.
- Beat egg white with a pinch of salt until completely white and fluffy.
- Start to fold egg white into sugar and almond mix. Add a couple of table spoons at a time. You should reach silky and stiff consistency of the cookie dough. NOTE: You may not need to use all egg whites, just enough to get the dough together.
- Sprinkle work surface with some powdered/confectioners sugar.
- Pinch off some dough and roll it into ⅔ of an inch rope.Using a dough scraper cut the rope into ⅔ of an inch pieces.
- Roll each "pillow" giving it a ball shape (size of a walnut) and roll it in generous amount of confectioners sugar.
- Place each cookie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.Decorate with an almond nut (optional).
- Bake in preheated to 350F oven for 12-15 minutes, just until inside the crinkles amaretti become lightly brown.
