How to Make Lady Fingers

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, beating until glossy and stiff.
  3. Gently fold in the almond flour and vanilla extract until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  4. Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip. Pipe 4-inch long ladyfingers onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet before serving or using in your favorite dessert.
