Tilted Brush Stroke

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment and trace 1 1/2 inch - 2 inch egg shapes onto the parchment as a guide for piping.

Tilted Brush Stroke

Combine almond flour, confectioners sugar, and salt in a food processor fitted with a steel blade and blend until completely combined, 1-2 mins.

Beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form.

Add superfine sugar and beat on high speed until meringue is glossy and (very!) stiff peaks form.

Tilted Brush Stroke

Fold almond flour mixture into meringue - I find about 50 strokes to be the magic number. The batter should be the consistency of lava.

A runny batter leads to nothing but problems. The right piping texture should resemble thick lava that will spread a bit after it’s piped, but not be runny or drippy.
