How to make Feuilletine?
Step 1: Melt the Butter
Start by melting the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Once the butter is completely melted, remove the saucepan from the heat, let it cool slightly, and mix it with egg whites.
Step 2: Add Flour and Sugar
Gradually add the sifted flour and powdered sugar to the egg whites and melted butter, and whisk well to combine.
Step 3: Spread the Batter
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the batter thinly and evenly onto the parchment paper using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Step 4: Bake
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the baking sheet with the batter in the preheated oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the feuilletine turns golden brown and crispy.
Step 5: Cool and Break Into Pieces
Remove the feuilletine from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. Once it’s completely cooled, break it into small pieces using your hands or a knife.
And that’s it! Homemade feuilletine is ready to be used in your desserts. You can store it in an airtight container for up to a week.
