When this time of the year comes, January and February, I fill my house with oranges and tangerines that we eat at all times. That is why I have other recipes already published with these fantastic fruits. They are two of our favorite fruits, those that occupy my top list, and though available for many months in the year, it is now when they are tastier. Today I bring you these financiers of satsuma, a variety of Japanese mandarins, also called mikan, cultivated in Valencia.THye are very tight tangerines, pitted with much juice.. I love the name and how they tastet, so I decided to prepare a special recipe with them.

In Malaga, in the Valley of the Guadalhorcel the Axarquía and more fertile areas, we also have the great luck of enjoying fresh fruit year-round, and we have the opportunity to get almost all citrus, so there is no excuse to not prepare this simple, but delicious recipe of financiers Make them and succeed!

The financiers are a kind of French biscuits (within the groups of the petit fours that are eaten almost in a bite), and they are made with almonds flour (or ground almonds). They owe their original name to the fact that they were created so that financiers would not stain their hands when eating, and hence the reason for its small size. But I would say that what most characterizes these biscuits is brown butter, almost-burnt butter which gives a delicious flavor (Yes, yes the burnt butter gives a very special flavor).

The cakes are moist and soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. A delight to eat almost in a single bite. You don't believe it? Let's go to make them and you'll see.
