Possibly a stupid question, but could you just cut the whole recipe by half? I don't think almond meal really works on its own as a replacement for flour - too much fat and it doesn't absorb liquids like other flours. Do you have any other flours around you could substitute, like rice?
Nope, no other flours around. I figured I'd ask and see if subbing would be ok, otherwise, yeah, cutting the whole thing in half seems like the best option.
Oh yeah, easily. I just figured I'd check and see if subbing would work. I was hoping to make a big enough batch that I could share with the neighbor I borrow my wifi from AND bring some to work tomorrow. Oh well!
Ooo, good idea. I do like mini cupcakes. Making a half batch with some big ones and some eensy ones could be super cute. Last time I made these sort they all got wolfed down by the folks at work, they're super damn tasty.
"lmond flour is good in "quick-bread" type recipes, like muffins, nut breads, and pancakes (see recipes below). It's not good for foods such as bread that require a real dough (you can't knead it). Usually, more eggs are required when baking with almond meal to provide more structure."
