Friands are little almond cakes, ideal for afternoon tea. We were popping over the parent-in-laws for dinner tonight and I decided to bake something apricoty for dessert as my father-in-law is a great fan of apricots. This simple friand recipe seems ideal.
These friands are baked out of 3 whisked egg whites and 100g melted butter mixed into 100g ground almonds, 40g plain flour and 125g icing sugar. 3 chopped and diced apricots are then mixed in. The dough is then separated into 8 muffin/friand tins and topped with flaked almonds. Baking time was about 15 - 20 mins at 170 fan/190 degrees.
Have to hear about taste from my tasters so will keep you posted!
