Lime & Coconut Friands

October 25, 2015

These pretty little gluten free lime flavoured friands are lovely, dainty little cakes made with rice flour, egg whites, ground almonds and coconut. Perfect for High Tea.

8 medium sized eggs (at room temperature) and we will only be using the whites
2 cups icing sugar
2/3 cup rice flour
2/3 cup ground almonds
2/3 cup dessicated coconut
250 grams butter
2 tablespoons lime zest
2 tablespoon lime juice

Optional - 2 tablespoons extra coconut for decorating
Also Optional - 1/3 cup of fresh or frozen raspberries (approx)

First melt the butter over a low heat and then leave it to cool down. I think for this recipe it’s best to cool it down to just above room temperature, so I melt it before I even get any of the ingredients...
