Hello Foodies,
This recipe is all about love in a little cake. The friands are the cousin of the French Financier and often flavoured with fruits. The financier tends to be made with nutty butter and almond only, whereas the friands can be flavoured with berries and other nuts. Both of them are just divine and so easy to make.
They are very addictive so be aware. Often served for morning tea, afternoon tea or high tea. Once you made this recipe you will keep it in your heart and mind frever.
Let’s get baking
Frenchy.
