In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and vanilla bean powder.
Tip: Sift the dry ingredients for an even texture.

In a large bowl, beat the butter and caster sugar until pale and fluffy.
Tip: Use a hand mixer for best results.

Beat in the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined.
Tip: Don't overmix, or the tuiles will be tough.

Sift the confectioner's sugar over the mixture and fold until just combined.

Add the unsalted almonds and fold until just combined.
Tip: Be careful not to overmix.

Cover the mixture and rest for 30 minutes.
