Ingredients
- 3 large egg whites
- pinch of fine sea salt
- 200 grams caster sugar

Method
Step 1
Whisk the egg whites and salt together in a clean, grease free bowl until just firm. Add the sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Step 2
Carefully fold in the hazelnuts so as not to lose the volume.
Step 3
Fill a piping bag filled with a 2cm plain nozzle with the mixture, then pipe the mixture into mini paper cases.
Step 4
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 130°C and bake for a further 15 minutes. Leave to cool on a wire rack.
