I love Friands! I simply L-O-V-E friands. You get the idea. Friands are those magic things that make your afternoons easy, it makes a cup of tea even more satiable and a worrying mind more at peace. It must be comfort-food for it does release a lot of endorphins for me. A café across from where I work sells Friands and while they are OK, $3.50 for a rather average Friand leaves a lot to be desired. I still indulge in the ocassional binge.
A couple of days back we had this brilliant idea of trying to bake it at home. And honesty I’ve never baked Friands before. Its super easy to bake and really cheap on the pocket. Most of all they DO taste yummy and fresh and for $3.50 you’d almost have a tray of 6 fresh moist friands if not more. Receipe to follow on sydneybites.com soon 
Have you made Friands before?

Baking is fun indeed. And far less complicated than cooking. And the place always smells nice when you bake.
