Marzipan log with slices cut on board with parchment paper and whole almonds on surface Nugget Markets signature recipes

This classic almond-based confection can be shaped and decorated into fun treats as is, or used to add a nice nuttiness to recipes like Stollen.

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups almond flour
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 1½ teaspoons almond extract

Preparation

Combine the almond flour and powdered sugar in the work bowl of a food processor. Pulse to blend until just combined.

Add the egg white, salt and almond extract, processing until the mixture comes together and forms a plyable ball.

Remove the almond paste from the processor, scraping the sides of the bowl.

Shape the paste into a log then wrap it in plastic and refrigerate until ready to use.
