LIME AND ALMOND FRIANDS
Friands, from the French meaning "dainty" or "tasty", are quaint little cakes made from nutmeal, usually almond meal. They have a dense yet moist texture and are the perfect size to have with coffee. They are usually baked in oval-shaped friand moulds, but medium-sized muffin moulds are fine as a substitute. Friands will keep 3 days (if they last that long!) in an air-tight tin, or alternatively can be frozen. The uncooked mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days as well.

Steps:
- Grease and flour a non-stick 12 hole friand tin or 12 medium muffin holes.
- Pre-heat oven to 375F (180C).
- Melt butter gently in the microwave oven.

- Divide mixture evenly among the prepared pans.
- Top each friand with an almond.
- Bake in the moderately hot oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until lightly browned- the friands should spring back when touched.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Generously butter six non-stick friand or muffin tins. Melt the butter and set aside to cool.
- Sift the icing sugar and flour into a bowl. Add the almonds and mix everything between your fingers.
- Whisk the egg whites in another bowl until they form a light, floppy foam. Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients, tip in the egg whites and lemon rind, then lightly stir in the butter to form a soft batter.
- Divide the batter among the tins, a large serving spoon is perfect for this job. Sprinkle a handful of blueberries over each cake and bake for 15-20 minutes until just firm to the touch and golden brown.
- Cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then turn out and cool on a wire rack. To serve, dust lightly with icing sugar.
