These walnut sticks are among the sweets that disappear from the table first. They are quick to prepare, have a pronounced walnut flavor and, thanks to the egg-white icing, look elegant, delicate and fluffy. The recipe is ideal for the Christmas season, but it also works well as a quick sweet for coffee when unexpected guests arrive.

For 8 portions

Ingredients

2 egg whites
200 g powdered sugar
200 g ground walnuts
1 tablespoon lemon juice
100 g ground walnuts for dusting the dough

Preparation procedure

Beat the egg whites with the powdered sugar and lemon juice into a firm and glossy meringue. Set aside one third of the mixture for the topping, leaving the rest in the bowl. To the larger portion of the meringue add 200 g ground walnuts and gently mix until you obtain a compact dough.
Sprinkle 100 g ground walnuts onto the work surface and briefly work the dough on them. Shape into a rectangle approximately 8 × 20 cm and about 1 cm thick. Spread the reserved egg-white mixture evenly over the surface. Then cut with a sharp knife into sticks about 1 cm wide and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake by drying at 80 °C for about 90 minutes. Let the walnut sticks cool after drying and serve.

Total preparation time: approx. 1 hr 50 min (10 min preparation + 1 hr 30–40 min drying)

Number of servings: 20–25 sticks depending on width

Conclusion

Walnut sticks with meringue are a traditional, simple yet elegant type of sweet that can delight any lover of walnut desserts. An advantage of the recipe is the minimal ingredients and the pronounced flavor of walnuts, making it a great choice if you’re looking for flourless sweets without complicated preparation. They are perfect with coffee, on a festive table or as seasonal cookies.
