AMARETTI CRISPS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and toast in the oven until lightly browned and fragrant, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool.
- Combine the almonds and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, and grind to a fine powder. Transfer to a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the almond mixture; fold in the almond extract.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the almond mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip. Pipe 20 2-inch rings onto the prepared sheet, about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, and immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

To achieve the most volume, whisk egg whites in a metal bowl set over a pot of simmering water until just warm to the touch. Toast the almond slices by placing them in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and baking at 325°F, stirring occasionally until fragrant, about 10 minutes.

- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
- Whisk the almond flour, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl to combine. Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 1 minute 30 seconds. Add the almond extract and beat to combine. Fold the egg whites into the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms.

- Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown and the tops crack, 23 to 25 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
PEACH-AMARETTI CRISP
With such a strong almond-like flavor, it makes sense to think that authentic Italian amaretti cookies are made with almonds. But, in fact, it's apricot kernels that give them their robust, nutlike bite. Whatever the source of their flavor, amaretti cookies have a remarkable affinity for stone fruits such as peaches. I often double (or triple) the recipe for this topping and freeze the leftover in a zippered plastic bag. That way, I have some on hand and can bake up a crisp at a moment's notice.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- To make the filling, peel, pit, and cut the peaches into 1/2-inch (1.5-cm) slices. In a large bowl, toss the peaches with the 2 tablespoons (30 g) granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and vanilla or almond extract. Transfer the peaches to a shallow 2-quart (2-liter) baking dish. Set aside.
- To make the topping, in a food processor fitted with the metal blade, pulse together the 3/4 cup (110 g) flour, 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar, brown sugar, amaretti crumbs, cinnamon, and almonds until the almonds are in small bits but with chunks still visible. Add the chilled butter pieces and pulse until the topping no longer looks sandy and is just beginning to hold together.
- Distribute the topping evenly over the peaches. Bake until the filling is bubbling around the edges and a sharp paring knife inserted into the center of the cobbler meets no resistance, 40 to 50 minutes.
- Serve warm or at room temperature with Vanilla Ice Cream (page 143) or just a pour of fresh, cold cream.
- For a MIXED BERRY CRSIP, make the filling using 6 cups (1 3/4 pounds/795 g) mixed berries (raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and quartered strawberries) with 1/3 cup (65 g) granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons (15 g) all-purpose flour, and 2 teaspoons kirsch or lemon juice.
- If using store-bought amaretti, which are usually tiny, you'll need a few more than indicated in the recipe to make the right amount of crumbs.
- Have a sheet of aluminum foil on the lower rack of the oven during baking to catch any overflow of fruit juices.

MINI PEAR-AND-CRANBERRY AMARETTI CRISPS
Sliced almonds and store-bought amaretti-cookies made from almond flour and egg whites-double the nutty flavor of these crisps, which each serve one or two people. Silky pears bring the sweetness, and cranberries keep things interesting with their mouth-puckering punch. A scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into the crags is, of course, a welcome addition.
