Fig and blackberry perfectly combine in these scrumptious bite-sized friands.

180g unsalted butter, melted
6 eggwhites
200g icing sugar, plus extra to dust
60g plain flour, sifted
120g almond meal
1 firm fresh fig, finely chopped
24 (about 60g) fresh blackberries or other berries

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 200°C. Use a little of the butter to grease a 12-hole friand pan.
2.

Lightly beat eggwhites in a large bowl until frothy. Sift in icing sugar and flour, then add almond meal. Add melted butter, stir until just combined, then pour into pan. Top each friand with 2 berries and some chopped fig.
3.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, turning tray halfway, until tops are golden and springy to the touch. Stand for 5 minutes, then turn onto a rack to cool slightly. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm.
