Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a financier mold.

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it turns golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let it cool.

In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, powdered sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg white mixture, stirring until just combined.
-
Slowly pour in the cooled browned butter, stirring until well incorporated.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared mold and sprinkle the sliced almonds on top.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the financiers are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let them cool in the mold for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
