Coffee Drops almond pastries easy and quick, without flour, butter, and oil, gluten-free, great after lunch or dinner or as a Christmas gift, ready in a few minutes.

I wanted a simple treat, one that smells like home and is prepared in a few minutes, and so these coffee drops were born, delicious almond treats without flour, butter, and oil. I made them on a Sunday afternoon, when you crave something good but don’t want to mess up the kitchen: few ingredients, one bowl, and the aroma of almonds and coffee fills the house.

The coffee drops are soft pastries inside and slightly crunchy outside, sweet to the right point and perfect to accompany coffee or a cup of cappuccino. They are ideal after lunch or dinner, but also as a small homemade gift for Christmas: they keep for days in a tin box and stay delicious as if freshly made.

They are gluten-free, so suitable even for those with intolerances, and the coffee aroma makes them irresistible, one of those clever recipes that make you look good with minimal effort.

If you love classic almond treats, this coffee variant will win you over: they prepare in 10 minutes, and you don’t even need a stand mixer. Just mix the ingredients, form balls, and pinch them slightly before baking, hence the name “pizzicotti” (pinches)!

Perfect for accompanying tea, an autumn snack, or enriching a tray of homemade Christmas cookies, they are treats that never tire, and once tried, you’ll make them all year round.
