200g ground almonds,

55g plain flour,

2 eggs,

100g fructose/caster sugar,

1 tspn baking powder,

Because the recipe is in grams I'm gonna guess that the 170 degree oven is in Centigrade instead of Fahrenheit, right?

I would only suggest substituting honey for the sugar... Honey goes really well with these flavor combinations. and of course aluminum free baking powder..
