I have chosen this rather than ground nuts. I think it is a coarse mix (i.e. roughly ground) almonds

ground nuts


Explanation:
I believe a broyage is a kind of dessert with ground nuts in it, so if the word is appearing in a list of ingredients, I would assume it's being used to designate the ground nuts.

neutral  Tony M: But that would be 'amandes en poudre', I feel sure if it was specifically almonds, they would have said so. / Indeed, yes — though it seems odd that this term was found in an NL document, rather than a FR one

  -> Good point Tony - although Rachel's finding of previous Proz entry suggests it may indeed involve almonds.

agree  Jocelyne Cuenin
