Preparation steps
1.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2.
Beat egg whites with 1 teaspoon orange juice until stiff peaks form. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, then vanilla, orange zest, and juice from half an orange. Beat until mixture is firm and shiny. Remove about 6 tablespoons to use for glaze; chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
3.
Fold the ground almonds and cinnamon into the egg white mixture; mixing to incorporate.
4.
Sprinkle your work surface with confectioners' sugar and ground almonds. Roll out dough to a 3/4-inch thickness in the shape of a rectangle. Cut dough into bite-size strips and place on prepared baking sheets 2-inches apart. Chill for about 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
5.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 275º F.
6.
Brush chilled strips with remaining glaze (if glaze is too thick, add a drop or two of orange juice). Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake for 20 to 30 minutes.
