Ingredients:

  • 100 gr flour
  • 3 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 100 gr Sugar
  • 40 gr butter
  • 250 gr Marmalade or Nutella
  • 200 ml Alchermes (Image 1 and see tips for details)
  • Handful Berries or toppings to decorate

Process:

  1. Start by breaking the eggs and separate the yolk from the egg white into two different bowls make sure that the egg whites are placed in a glass bowl. Mix the yolk with the sugar until the mixture looks foamy (Image 2).
  2. Add the butter which it has been previously melted and mix until everything is completely dissolved. By using a sieve, add the normal flour as well as the coconut one and mix everything together.
  3. Continue by whisking the egg white in the separate bowl until they form peaks. Add the foamy egg white in the egg yolk mixture bowl and mix everything together. Make sure to use a spatula and make circular upwords movements so that the foamy consistency will not disappear.
  4. Once everything is amalgamated, proceed by putting a sheet of baking paper in a tray (25×35 cm) and sprinkle it with some water. This will avoid the dough to stick to the paper.
  5. Spread the mixture on the baking tray (1cm thick) and bake it for 8min at 220°C. It might take less time if the over is already very warm.
  6. Once the dough is cooked, take it out from the oven and reverse it on a plastic foil and carefully remove the baking paper (Image 3).
  7. With a brush, spread the Alchermes on the dough (Image 4) and then spread either the marmalade or the Nutella on top very quickly (Image 5). Subsequently, close the dough by rolling it on itself with the support of the plastic foil.
  8. Make sure to close the roll properly with the plastic foil and let it rest in the fridge for an hour at least.
  9. Serve with some berries, chocolate topping or icing sugar (Image 6 and 7).
