Raspberry Financier

A family cake full of sweetness: the Raspberry Financier ! With its delicious almond flavor and pieces of fruit, it can be prepared in just a few minutes (without resting time). We love its soft texture with almond powder and its delicious little hazelnut butter...

What you will like about this raspberry financier

• flavors : the ideal duo of sweet almond and tangy raspberries, enhanced by a little touch of vanilla.
• texture : the financier is very soft and fruity too with its raspberries spread over the cake.
• difficulty level : very easy to prepare! To bake this family-sized raspberry financier, I use a simple 20 cm round mold.

Precision on the choice of ingredients

• butter : for these financiers, I use unsalted butter, which I melt into brown butter (everything is explained in the recipe). The browned butter is great for adding a delicious taste to the financiers in general as in my recipe for almond financiers cakes.
• almond meal : it is the key ingredient of this raspberry financier because it brings the almond taste and the soft texture. This almond powder is mixed with a little flour to hold the cake together.
• icing sugar : I use icing sugar here because it melts easily into the batter, especially when you add the unbeaten egg whites.
• vanilla : it is a flavor enhancer in this recipe, ideal for highlighting the almond.
• raspberries : I use fresh raspberries because frozen raspberries don't look very pretty once defrosted and also release a lot of juice. The advantage with fresh raspberries is that they don't add any liquid to the cake.

My advice for successful raspberry financing

• do not let your brown butter darken in the pan: as soon as the amber color appears, stop the cooking by pouring it into a bowl through a strainer.
• use a spatula/spatula to incorporate the egg whites with dry ingredients, it's easier than a whisk because the dough is quite sticky.
• when adding the raspberries : do not push them into the dough, just place them on top. During cooking, they will naturally integrate into the cake.
• to know if the cake is cooked : you can trust the golden color of the raspberry financier first and then a wooden skewer stuck in the center of the cake. If it comes out dry or with a few crumbs, it's cooked!

How to store the raspberry financier?

The raspberry financier can be stored at room temperature, in an airtight container (or under a hood) for about 3-4 days, protected from heat.

I do not recommend putting it in the refrigerator because with the butter it contains, it would lose its softness, which would be a shame.

Home

• KitchenAid Cordless Electric Mixer
• Round pan 20cm
• Digital kitchen scale accurate to 1g

Ingredients 

• 110 g unsalted butter
• 100 g almond meal
• 50 g all-purpose flour
• 130 g icing sugar
• 1 pinch of salt
• 4 Egg whites at room temperature
• 0,5 cc natural vanilla extract
• 120 g fresh raspberries

Prepare in advance 

• Prepare the brown butter: in a small saucepan, heat the butter in pieces over very low heat, stirring, until it takes on an amber-caramel hue. Immediately remove from heat, sieve to remove the foam and pour into a bowl to stop the cooking. Let cool for the rest of the recipe.
• Preheat the oven to 180° traditional heat. Butter and flour a 20cm mold. Tap the mold to remove excess flour.
• In a large container, sift the ground almonds, flour, icing sugar and salt. Mix everything for a fine and homogeneous texture.
• Separately, relax the whites with a fork (without whipping them). Then add them to the dry ingredients with the vanilla extract. Mix with a spatula/maryse. There should be no lumps. Do not overmix, just what is necessary.
• Finish by adding the warm brown butter, incorporate by mixing gently with the spatula/maryse.
• Pour the batter into the mold. Place the fresh raspberries on top, without pressing them in (hole down).
• Bake for around 30-35 minutes (adjust depending on your oven, as they are all different). The corners and top of the financier should take on a golden hue.
• NB: you can use individual financier molds, in this case you will have to reduce the cooking time to around 13-15 minutes.
• Leave to cool in the mold then unmold on a wire rack until completely cooled.

Notes

The raspberry financier can be kept at room temperature, in an airtight container (or under a cover) for approximately 3-4 days, away from heat.

I do not recommend the refrigerator because it will harden.
