Savory Aperitif Financier Bites

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180 °C, standard baking.
2. Butter and flour financier tin or 2 min muffin tins with 20 sections each.
3. Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat until the butter turns a dark-golden brown (this is called beurre noisette), then immediately take the pan off the heat.
4. Mix the dry ingredients into a bowl. Whisk the egg whites and salt to soft peaks in another bowl.
5. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl and slowly incorporate the warm butter (if the butter is very hot it will curdle the eggs). Sift the dry ingredients into the egg and butter mix and then fold in half the egg whites, followed by Parmesan cheese. Fold in the rest of egg whites.
6. Spoon 1 tsp of the butter in each tin section (do not overfill), garnish the tops with cut olives and cherry tomatoes. Bake for 15 minutes or until the cakes spring back when touched. Leave to cool in the tin.
7. Keep in air-tight container for a couple of days.
