4. Quickly fold the whipped egg whites into the batter.

5. Spread the batter onto a paper-lined sheet pan. Sprinkle the surface of the batter with the slivered almonds. Bake at 375°F (190°C) until lightly browned, approximately 18 to 20 minutes.

6. Yield: 1 Full Sheet Pan
Total batter weight: 3 pounds, 4 ounces (52 ounces)
