- Ensure your egg whites are at room temperature for better incorporation and volume.

- You can lightly toast the almonds before grinding to enhance their nutty flavor.
- Carefully fold the ingredients to maintain the airy texture provided by the egg whites.
- If you want a stronger lemon flavor, add a bit of lemon zest to the batter.
Cooking lemon drizzle friands is a simple yet rewarding process that yields deliciously moist and flavorful cakes. By following these tips and paying attention to the details, you'll create a delightful dessert that's sure to impress. Enjoy your homemade friands with a cup of tea or coffee for the perfect afternoon indulgence.
