Method
- STEP 1
Grind the almonds to a very fine powder in a small food processor then blend in the flour and salt. Add the sugar, whole eggs, yolks and cream. Whizz until creamy smooth. (If you’re making ahead, tip the batter into a jug at this point and store in the fridge for up to 24 hours.)

Give the batter a good stir, pour into the dishes and bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until risen and lightly firm. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm.
