Gluten free lemon friands

Thank you for all your lovely comments about Felicity’s Formal Frock made from Funky Fabric with some Flares of Frustration but now Finally Finished.

Clearly, I like F-words, and need to keep using them.

Words like Friands.

These were made by He who Cooks. And they were Fabulous!

Ingredients

• 180 g butter melted, plus extra for greasing
• zest of 2 large or 3 medium lemons
• 200 g pure icing sugar
• 80 g gluten free plain flour
• 125 g almond meal
• 5 egg whites, lightly whisked
• flaked almonds to sprinkle on top

1. Preheat fan forced oven to 165°C (180°C for conventional oven)
2. Grease 12 hole friand tin with extra melted butter
3. Combine melted butter and lemon zest, then sift in icing sugar and flour, and almond meal ( if it will go through the sieve)
4. Add egg whites and mix until combined and smooth
5. Spoon into the holes of the friand tin and top with flaked almonds.
6. Bake for 25 minutes.

Makes 12.
