Preparation
Before you start: Defrost the puff pastry dough at room temperature for 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. The dough should be soft but still feel cold to the touch.
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 205°C/400°F. Butter a large baking sheet (about 30 x 38 cm) and line with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a bowl, mix the butter with the sugar using a mixer, until light and fluffy. Fold in the almond meal, protein powder, 2 eggs and vanilla extract. Set aside.
Step 3: On a lightly floured board, roll out 2 layers of dough of about 10 inch (25 cm) diameter, using a rolling pin. Place one layer on the baking sheet.
Step 4: Transfer the almond protein mixture to the center of the dough layer, leaving about 1 inch (2,5 cm) on the edge. Insert one bean into the dough layer near the edge (for avoiding slicing the bean when cutting the cake). Whisk the remaining egg with 1 tbsp water, then brush the dough layer's edge. Cover with the second layer.
Step 5: Seal the edges, gently pressing with a fork. Create tiny holes in the upper part of the crust, to allow the steam to escape. Brush the crust with the beaten egg.
Step 6: Bake in the oven for 20-25 min, until reaches golden color.
Step 7: Serve at room temperature.
