Start cooking opens one step at a time with read-aloud and hands-free voice control — “next”, “repeat”, “how much salt”, “timer 10 minutes”.

1. 1Mix the self-rising flour, sugar, speculaas spice mix and salt. Add the butter and milk and knead into a firm ball of dough. Start with 6 tablespoons of milk, if the dough is too stiff you can add more milk.
2. 2Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. You can process and bake it immediately, but the flavor will be much better if you let it rest.
3. 3Mix the almond paste with half of the beaten egg and knead well. This makes it easier to work with and gives it a better and tastier texture.
4. 4Take half of the dough and roll it out to 20 x 20 cm. Put the in a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Spread the almond paste mixture evenly. Roll out the remaining dough and put the on top of the almond paste.
5. 5Brush the top with the remaining beaten egg. Finish with almonds and top with another layer of egg wash.
6. 6BakeBake the filled speculaas for 40 minutes at 180°C/350℉ (conventional oven) or until done.
