I really have to thank my colleague, Rachel for spotting this recipe (from Anncoo Journal) for me as she was very sure that my son will like these friands and true enough he really did, so did my girl, MIL and maid too! They all cannot stop with 1 pc and ended up eating many more. I actually tried out with 1/2 of the recipe only, using my mini muffin pans and it yield 30pcs.
I was pondering why I could not pour the batter directly into the fillers (just like cupcakes), so I tested a few pcs with the batter poured into the fillers and I got the answer after baking - I am not able to separate the friands from the fillers haha...
These friands were really fantastic, not greasy, tasted great with the blueberry and had a refreshing taste from the lemon zest. They tasted even better the next day.
