Step 1

In a food processor, grind almond flour and sugar together. Add slightly beaten egg whites a little at a time and mix well. Take care that the mixture does not become too moist, it will rise to excess, become porous and, as a result, be difficult to remove from the pan. If it becomes too moist, add flour and sugar; if it becomes too dry, add egg whites. It is best to test a small sample. Cover and let rest for at least 10 minutes and up to one day.

Step 2

Grease ring-shaped pans with unsalted butter or cooking oil, and sprinkle with cream of wheat. If using non-stick rings, cream of wheat is not needed. Using a dough press, extrude dough into the rings, making sure to overlap the ends by at least 1/2 inch and press together to make a similar thickness.

Step 3

Preheat oven to 300°F and place rack in the middle of the oven.

Step 4

Bake rings on a cookies sheet, nesting the rings as needed to fit for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until very lightly brown (the white almond flour will keep the rings pale, so just the slightest toasting). Cool quickly, preferably in a draft (or outside if winter). When almost cool, carefully slide cake from the pans and stack largest to smallest.
