almond danish

Flaky nut treat

An almond danish is a pastry made from laminated dough filled or topped with almond paste or frangipane, often finished with sliced almonds and a light glaze.

The flaky, buttery layers come from Danish pastry technique, while the almond filling adds richness and subtle sweetness: I grabbed an almond danish with my coffee.
