Rustic Chestnut Maple Tuile
- 3 ounces chestnut flour, sifted (use 2-3 tbl. less for thinner, more elegant tuile)
- 1/2 cup organic cane sugar
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- pinch of sea salt
- 2.5 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 3 egg whites, beaten fluffy
- 1 teaspoon Meyer's lemon zest, optional
- olive oil spray for parchment
- Mix the flour, sugar, salt, maple syrup, and butter together.
- Whisk in the fluffy egg whites. Add optional zest. Let the batter sit for about an hour.
- Oil 2 sheets of parchment paper placed upon baking sheets.
- On each baking sheet create 6 strips of the batter by spooning it out evenly and thinly, leaving 2 inches between each strip.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
- While still warm wrap each strip around a 2 inch diameter dowel or glass bottle. If you prefer, you could make miniature tuiles by creating 24 narrow strips then wrapping them around a 1 inch diameter dowel or glass probably following about an 8 minute baking time.
