Maple Palmiers

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

   Tip: Use a convection oven for crisper palmiers.

2. 2

   Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

   Tip: Use a whisk for efficient mixing.

3. 3

   Add the unsalted butter and mix until the dough comes together.

   Tip: Don't overmix, or the palmiers will be tough.

4. 4

   Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix until fully incorporated.

   Tip: Make sure the eggs are fully mixed in before adding the next.

5. 5

   Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of 5 mm.

   Tip: Use a rolling pin for an even thickness.

6. 6

   Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces and roll each into a thin sheet.

   Tip: Make sure the sheets are uniform for even cooking.

7. 7

   Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan to 180°C.

   Tip: Don't overcrowd the pan, as this can lower the oil temperature.

8. 8

   Fry the palmier sheets for 30 seconds on each side, or until golden brown.

   Tip: Use a thermometer for precise temperature control.

9. 9

   Drizzle the palmiers with pure maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon.

   Tip: Let the palmiers cool for a few seconds before serving.

10. 10

    Serve the maple palmiers warm, or let them cool completely and store in an airtight container.

    Tip: Best served within a day of baking.
