ALMOND AND AMARETTI ROLL without butter and oil, easy and quick dessert perfect for the Christmas holidays to make in little time.
A simple and truly delicious idea, the almond and amaretti roll is perfect if you are looking for a quick dessert to use up some dried fruit with a light puff pastry without butter and oil.
The almond and amaretti roll is similar to a strudel, of course, the filling changes a bit compared to the typical Trentino dessert made with apples, raisins, cinnamon, and honey.
I couldn’t find the honey in the fridge even though I used it a few days ago, so I opted for apricot jam, which I found perfect, even more so than honey in this dessert. Anyway, you can always vary it to your liking.
With the light puff pastry, you can make both sweet and savory dishes like this zucchini roll or a flatbread to cook in a pan, or a hazelnut roll.
Follow me in the kitchen, today there is the almond and amaretti roll, fast and tasty!
