Another story about speculoos! And yes, I’m going to do it again because I love it! I can’t get enough of it.
This time I’m going to make you drool with this very generous muffin recipe. It’s made up mainly of almond powder and very little flour.
Almonds, this dried fruit is very well known in the kitchen. It can be used for both sweet and savoury dishes. This dried fruit is very energetic and meets the daily requirements and above all it does not make you fat.

In addition to its many energetic qualities, it is also used in cosmetics…
I use it to moisturise my dry hair and it works very, very well.
Like Proust’s madeleine, this wonderful fruit reminds me of Morocco, my home country. My family serves them with tea and argan oil. So I’ve been used to eating them since I was a child. And it is the basis of Moroccan pastry. I will soon be telling you about the sweet specialties of my native country.
