Amaretto extract is a concentrated flavoring made from the bitter almond-like kernels of apricot pits and/or peach pits, combined with alcohol and sweeteners such as sugar or honey. It is commonly used in baking and confectionery to add a nutty, sweet, and slightly bitter taste to desserts, sauces, and beverages.
Amaretto extract is often used as a substitute for amaretto liqueur in recipes, as it provides the same flavor without the alcohol content. It can also be added to coffee, tea, or hot chocolate for a rich and flavorful twist.
It's important to note that amaretto extract is not the same as pure almond extract, as the former contains the distinctive bitter flavor of the apricot or peach pits. When using amaretto extract in recipes, it's recommended to start with small amounts and adjust to taste, as the potency of the extract can vary.
