MasterClass KCMCHB88 12 Hole Friand Pan with PFOA Free Non Stick, Robust 1 mm Carbon Steel, 35.5 x 26.5 cm , Grey

Product Information

A ‘standard’ muffin tin holds 75ml of liquid in each cup – the sort you would use for small cupcakes. I made my move from the land Down Under to the land of milk and honey with a half container full of cookbooks and treasured kitchen paraphernalia, all amassed during my years as a poor student and, later, a poor graduate with a ridiculously high student loan. Pour the mixture into the friand tin holes, add a few raspberries to each one, then scatter with the chopped pistachios. Today I’m sharing my gluten free Blueberry Friands with Lemon (which make a nice change to Raspberry Friands or an egg white Pavlova). When you find a favourite recipe, it’s hard to try something new 😉 I love these raspberry friands, whereas my husband loves the lemon ones and the kids love the blueberry ones!

Weigh and mix the almonds, flour, xanthan gum, icing sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl, making sure any lumps are broken down. I'm a Swiss-Australian based in Zurich and I love to cook fast and easy meals for my family, using fresh and seasonal ingredients. My daughter and I have chosen to make friands for her French class (cooking assignment and friands were an option) but we live at 5500ft elevation. The basic friand has an almond base, and what makes these stand apart is the wealth of variations, only limited by your imagination.

Bake for 20–25 minutes until the friands are risen and springy to the touch and a skewer inserted comes out clean. While making the friands, if the melted butter is too hot then it will cook the egg whites when added, so the butter should be slightly cold when you start adding the egg whites. In a clean, separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer or a hand whisk for 15-20 seconds (photo 1).

MasterClass Non-Stick Friand Tin | Auntie Morags

I couldn’t imagine a future without my kitchenalia and I was prepared to pay whatever the cost to have them accompany me to my new homeland. And your reference to Bondi Junction makes me feel nostalgic – my parents owned a bakery there when I was a young child and that’s where I grew up 🙂 Lovely memories! A friand pan is an Australian invention that combines the shape of the original aspic mould with the ease of a muffin tin. Place the remaining raspberries and peaches on top of each friand and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden, risen and springy to touch.However, there is so little flour in the recipe, that any good gluten free flour BLEND will work fine.

Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown, then let cool in the tins for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.I like to make Raspberry and Almond friands as the flavours so so well together, but you can mix and match the flavours to suit what is in season. Sieve the flour and icing sugar into a large mixing bowl then add the ground almonds and the rest of the sesame seeds, along with the lemon zest, cardamom powder and salt. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, a drizzle of yoghurt, some dollops of pesto, black pepper and sea salt. Delicately spiced, ginger and panch phoron-spiced seasonal vegetables sit on a green chilli, carrot tops and cashew nut pesto, baked in a wholewheat pastry.
