Calories: 116kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1 ⅔ cups icing sugar sifted
- ¾ cup all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup shredded coconut
- 5 egg whites
- 24 fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Spray a mini-tart pan with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 325°.
- Melt butter in microwave and reserve.
- Beat egg whites lightly in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl combined almond meal, sugar, flour, baking powder and coconut. Mix thoroughly.
- Add the egg whites and stir to combine. Add the melted butter and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Fill tart wells about ⅔ full. Place 1 fresh raspberry in the center of the batter.
- Bake 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Top edges should be starting to turn golden but not brown.
- Turn friands out after a few minutes to cool on a separate rack.
- If serving for a tea consider serving them inside small paper liners since dough can be sightly sticky.
- Friands freeze well up to 3 months. Defrost at room temperature.
