About the bake
Tuiles are classic, light French biscuits which you curl around the handle of a wooden spoon or rolling pin once baked to give them their unique shape.

Pre-heat the oven to 190°C, (fan 170°C, gas mark 5). Melt the butter and cool slightly.

Whisk the egg whites until stiff but not dry, then fold in the golden caster sugar, melted butter, flour and mixed spice.

Step 3
Spoon onto baking trays lined with non-stick baking paper and spread each spoonful into a 10cm (4 in) circles. The mixture will be very thin.
Step 4
