sugar
1 / Large egg
1 tsp / Bicarbonate
soda

50g / Almond

Add dry ingredient. Mix well until it formed soft dough. The soft dough will not stick to the hands. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
Divide the dough into small, equal-sized round balls and place them in a small muffin pan. Press gently the dough gently so that it levels with the muffin pan.
Bake in the preheated oven of 170°C for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 1 minute. Using small rolling pin, press gently in the centre of the pre-baked dough.
Bake again for another 5 minutes to make them crisp. Remove from the oven and let the pods cool. When the pods are completely cool, add ½-1 tsp of nutella.
Refrigerate the pods to let them set.
