Description

These friands are so perfect, fragrant, very moist and not greasy at all.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 60g Plain flour
  • 95g Icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp Lemon zest (grated from 1 large lemon)
  • 150g Almond meal (ground almond)
  • 200g Butter, melted and cooled
  • 150g Blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 5 Egg whites, (190-200g), lightly beaten with a fork
  • extra icing sugar, to dust

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees. Grease a 12 hole non-stick friand pan with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Sift the flour and icing sugar into a large bowl then add the lemon zest and almond meal. Stir to combine evenly and make a well in the centre.
  3. Add the egg whites and butter to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined with a hand whisk, do not overbeat. Then fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes until well risen and golden or insert a skewer into the cake comes out clean.
  5. Leave the friands in the pans for 5 minutes then carefully lift out onto a wire rack to cool.
  6. Serve friands dusted with icing sugar or snow powder.

Notes

If you don’t have a friand pan, you can use a 12-hole medium muffin tin instead.
