Roast the almonds in the oven at 180°C (360°F). Roasting is perfect when their heart is lightly coloured when you break them.

Let cool and grind with a knife.

Dissolve the baking powder in a tablespoon of water and add all other ingredients. Mix with a spatula or a blender mixer.

Leave the dough to rest for 24 hours in the refrigerator.

Spread the dough with a roll to a thickness of 6 mm, dusting it very lightly with flour, recto-verso.

Cut the gingerbreads with the biscuit cutter of your choice.

Lay the gingerbreads on a baking sheet or a buttered and floured plaque, and put in the oven at 170°C (340°F) to colour them slightly.
