Homemade Marzipan
Create authentic homemade marzipan in just minutes using only three simple ingredients. This traditional German-style almond paste is naturally vegan, egg-free, and gluten-free. It is perfect for filling pastries, covering festive cakes, or shaping into sweet almond candies, with an optional keto-friendly version using sugar alternatives.
Instructions
- 1
Place the blanched almond flour (90 g) and powdered sugar (70 g) into a food processor and pulse briefly to combine.
- 2
Add the water (20 ml), almond extract (0.25 tsp), and rose water (0.5 tsp) to the processor. Pulse until the mixture clumps together to form a solid dough ball.
- 3
Remove the dough and knead on a clean surface for 0.5 minutes. If it is too dry, add a few more drops of liquid; if too sticky, add a little more almond flour.
- 4
Roll the marzipan into a log, wrap tightly in cling film, and refrigerate to allow it to firm up.
