Bostock
Bostock is a French preparation of a sweet almond topping on tender bread. The slices are baked and topped with almonds and powdered sweetener for a festive dish that tastes similar to a bear claw. This recipe scales well to feed a group. The almond paste portion can also be made days ahead and refrigerated for a fast and easy prep the day of serving. I like to make this for special occasions and holidays but it is good any time!
Servings: 2
Calories: 443kcal
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons water
- 4 tablespoons allulose
- 4 slices protein bread or other keto bread
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup allulose
- 1/8 teaspoon stevia glycerite or another 3/4 cup allulose
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/3 cup sliced almonds
- monk fruit powdered, for serving, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the slices of bread on it and set aside.
- To make a simple syrup, heat a small pot or pan with the 4 tablespoons allulose and 2 tablespoons water. Bring to a boil and then set aside to cool.
- Combine the almond flour, allulose, stevia, egg, and almond extract in a blender and pulse to combine. Do not puree – you only want it just combined.
- Brush each bread slice with the simple syrup and then spread the blended almond mixture over the bread and then sprinkle the sliced almonds on top. Bake at 425ºF for 6-10 minutes, keeping a careful eye on them to keep them from burning. Dust with powdered monk fruit, if desired before serving warm.
