Unsalted butter & flour - for the cake pan 1/2 lb Almond paste
1 1/4 c Sugar
1 c Unsalted butter
- at room temperature 5 Eggs
1 c Sour cream
2 ts Vanilla extract
1/4 ts Almond extract

1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 ts Baking soda
1/4 ts Salt
FOR GARNISH:
Raspberry jelly Whole raspberries Powdered sugar This is from Deborah Madison's "The Savory Way" (Bantam, 1990). When the cake cools, slice it horizontally and spread it with raspberry jelly or whole, sugared raspberries. Replace the top and dust with powdered sugar. PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 325F. Butter and flour a 9-inch springform pan. Combine the almond paste and the sugar in a food processor and work until well blended. Add the butter and continue to process until blended; then add the eggs, one at a time, the sour cream and the flavorings. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Sift the flour with the baking powder, soda and salt. Add it to the batter a third at a time, gently stirring in each cupful. Turn the batter into the baking pan and bake the cake in the middle of the oven until the cake is golden on top and springy to the touch, about 1 hour. Remove the cake from the oven and let it stand to cool slightly;
then turn it out onto a serving plate. When cool, dust it with sifted powdered sugar. This cake will keep well, wrapped tightly for several days. Makes 1 large cake.

**********
The conclusion showed that the fresh egg white version rose the most at 9 cm, second was the liquid egg white version at 8 1/2 cm and third was the egg white powder version at 8 cm. Overall, they are quite similar in texture, taste and are crispy when toasted.
Advantages of Fresh Egg Whites
1. Cheap and easily available
2. Can make use of the yolks for other recipes
3. Rises the most so bread is lighter and fluffier
Disadvantages of Fresh Egg Whites
1. Need to buy fresh so shelf life is short.
2. Need time to separate the whites from the yolks
3. For most people, the leftover yolks are a burden because they don’t know what to do with them.
4. In terms of safety, it can run the risk of contamination from cracked shells.
Advantages of Liquid Egg Whites
1. No need to separate the whites from the yolks
2. No need to worry about what to do with the yolks
3. Rises almost as well as the fresh egg white version
4. 100% Pasteurized so it is free from contamination
Disadvantages of Liquid Egg Whites
1. In my country, liquid egg whites are not available in supermarkets unlike in some other countries. They are only available online here in frozen form. Hence, it takes up space in the freezer especially if we buy in bulk.
2. Not cheap here but I am not sure about other countries.
3. Although it can be kept frozen up to 12 months but once opened, it has to be used up within a week.
Advantages of Egg White Powder
1. No need to separate the whites from the yolks.
2. No need to worry about leftover yolks.
3. Rises reasonably well.
4. Can be stored at room temperature or at a cool place and shelf life is much longer.
5. 100% Pasteurized so it is free from contamination
Disadvantages of Egg White Powder
1. In my country, it is only available online unlike in other countries, it is available in physical stores or supermarkets.
2. The NOW brand I used is imported from USA so it’s quite costly. However, if you can find certain brands produced by local supplier at a much cheaper price then it may be more cost effective to use it as only a small amount is required to replace the fresh egg whites.

NUTRITION INFO
[ Total Servings = 16 ]
Per serving;
Total Carb = 5.9 g
Dietary Fiber = 5.1 g
Net Carb = 0.8 g
Calories = 106
Total Fat = 7.8 g
Protein = 6.2 g
UPDATE 12/5/22
1. The egg white powder can be increased to 50 g (from 42 g) with same amount of water to get a similar rise as the fresh egg white version. Also the powder can be added straight to the dry ingredients and water to the wet ingredients.
2. You can use the following measurements for all my keto bread;
1 large fresh egg white = 36 g
OR 36 g of liquid egg white
OR 6.25 g of egg white powder + 35 ml water (room temperature)
DRY INGREDIENTS
Finely Ground Raw Sunflower Seeds = 180 g / 1 1/2 cup
Finely Ground Golden Flaxseeds = 180 g / 1 1/2 cups
Baking Powder = 12 g / 3 tsp
Salt = 1/2 to 1 tsp
Whole Psyllium Husks = 27 g / 3 tbsp (Note: The psyllium husks must be ground until half its original volume before using then weigh it. This is important as it will absorb the water more effectively and this is actually more suitable for baking.)
WET INGREDIENTS
Egg Whites = 285 g Fresh Egg Whites OR 285 g Liquid Egg White OR 42 g Egg White Powder hydrated with 280 ml room temperature water
Apple Cider Vinegar = 45 ml / 3
Hot or Boiling Water = 200 ml / 0.8 cup
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven at 350F or 180C. I apologize for making an error in the video saying 350F or 170C. It should be 180C and not 170C.
2. In a bowl, mix all the dry ingredients until well combined.
3. Add all the wet ingredients and mix until a dough is formed. The dough is soft but firm and sticky.
4. In the video, I used an 8 x 5 x 4-inch loaf pan which was lightly greased and lined with parchment paper at the sides.
5. Transfer the dough into the pan. Spread evenly and leave the top round.
6. Bake for 60 minutes.
7. Cool completely.

These Ham Croquettes Appetizer freeze well and cook up in under 4-6 minutes and there is no dredging involved because of using a pate choux dough. The base for the croquette dough can be used with fish, chicken or any other type of meat to make your croquettes. The dipping sauce is made of guava however you can use any sweet fruit spread to make this exact dip.
4 ounces cooked Smoked ham, (fat and rind removed)
4 cups of chicken stock
1 onion chopped
2 carrot chopped
4 cloves garlic chopped1
teaspoon of dried thyme
½ stick of butter
2/3 cup of flour
2 whole eggs
1 egg white
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
kosher Salt
1 quart vegetable oil
Put the stock and the onion, carrot, garlic and dried thyme In a pot and simmer it for 4 hours. Let the liquid cool for 1 hour. Strain the pot setting aside the liquid and the ham.
Now to make the dough use 4 ounces of the braising liquid and the butter to a boil.
Immediately add the flour and stir until a ball of dough forms.
Once the ball of dough forms cook for an additional 2-3 minutes then set aside. Allow the dough to cool for a couple of minutes.
Add egg ( whole eggs and egg white) one at a time and incorporate it into the dough until you add the rest of the eggs.
It will look dough will look “gloppy” but continue to stir until the dough absorbed the egg. Set the dough aside.
Pulse the ham in a food processor until it is shredded. Put the ham into a large bowl and add the equal amount of dough to the ham. ( Just eye it). Mix them both together until it us fully combined. Add the pastry, chives, and thyme and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.

How Authentic Croissants Are Made In France | Regional Eats | Food Insider
Be it summer or winter, there is nothing that warms your heart more than a freshly baked croissant. But achieving these flaky, crunchy layers just can't be done overnight; it takes days of preparation and butter — lots of butter. We visit Frédéric Roy in his bakery in Nice, on the French Riviera, where he shows us how true artisanal croissants are made.
