Step-by-step directions
1 The Feuillants:
Take out your baking sheet and preheat the oven to 430°F (220°C) (gas mark 7).
2 In a bowl, pour the flour mixed with the almonds, add the eggs beaten like an omelette, then the sugar and finally the melted butter.
3 Using a brush or spoon, make small portions of mixture on your baking sheet (be careful as it spreads), you should be able to make about twenty.
4 Place in the middle of the oven and as soon as the discs start to color, remove them, loosen them with a spatula and put another baking sheet to cook (quick cooking). Let cool in the air.
5 Cut your strawberries in half or quarters depending on their size and reserve in the refrigerator.
