Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup (110g) caster sugar
- 1/3 cup (95g) Greek-style yoghurt
- 75g butter, melted
- 2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
- 1 cup (120g) almond meal
- ½ cup (75g) plain flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 250g fresh or frozen raspberries, halved
- 1 cup (160g) pure icing sugar, sifted
- 1 tbs lemon juice
- 1/3 cup (25g) flaked almonds, toasted
- Icing sugar, extra, to dust
Method
STEP 1
Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease 10 holes of two 6-hole, ½ cup (125ml) silicone muffin pans. Use an electric mixer to whisk eggs and sugar in a bowl until pale and thick. Add yoghurt, butter and lemon rind. Whisk to combine. Add the almond meal, flour, baking powder and three-quarters of raspberry. Use a large metal spoon to fold until just combined.
STEP 2
Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared pans. Bake for 25 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centres comes out clean. Set aside in the pans for 10 mins before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
STEP 3
Combine the icing sugar and enough lemon juice in a bowl to make a smooth paste. Spoon over the cakes. Top with flaked almonds and remaining raspberry. Dust with extra icing sugar.
