Method

• Add the almonds and the thyme to the KitchenAid Power blender, mix on speed 5 until the almonds have pulverised into flour.
• Put the olive oil and eggs into a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the Wire Whip. Mix on speed 4 for 1 minute. Set aside.
• In a different bowl, add the almond flour, flour, baking powder, salt and black pepper. Attach the Flat Beater to the stand mixer and mix on speed 4.
