Ingredients

  • 5 egg whites
  • 185 g 6.5oz butter, melted
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • 1 ⅓ cups icing sugar
  • ½ cup plain flour
  • Pulp of two passionfruit
  • 50-100 g 2 - 3.5oz chopped white chocolate
  • 2 tablespoon flaked almonds
  • Icing sugar to serve

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C(356F) fan-forced. Either line a 12-hole muffin tin with cupcake cases, grease a friand tin, or get your 12-hole silicone muffin tin out (no need to grease it I found).
  • Place the egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer and whip until stiff.
  • Take the bowl off the stand and use a spatula to fold in the butter, almond meal, sifted icing sugar and flour until just combined.
  • Fold through the passionfruit pulp and then the chopped white chocolate.
  • Divide the mixture between the cases and sprinkle the top of each one with a couple of flaked almonds.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely and dust with icing sugar to serve.
  • Pour mixture into friands pan or cupcake cases, bake 25 minutes. Dust with icing sugar when the cake is cool.
