Macadamia and Salted Caramel Friands

I've never made friands before so I was amazed at how easy these were. And they were so so yummy.

Ingredients
5 large egg whites
220 grams soft brown sugar
185 grams butter melted. Plus extra melted butter for greasing friand moulds.
125 grams almond meal
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 level teaspoon of sea salt
75 grams of plain flour, sifted
50 grams if macadamia nuts, roughly chopped

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Brush friand moulds with melted butter.
   
   
2. Whisk egg whites lightly until amalgamated.
   
   
3. Thoroughly stir in sugar, to ensure all lumps are gone. 
   
   
4. Mix in butter, almond meal, macadamia nuts, vanilla and salt.
   
   
5. Sift in the flour and fold in lightly.
   
   
6. Spoon mixture into moulds. Place filled tins onto a tray and place in the centre of the preheated oven.
   
   
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden on top and springy to the touch.
   
   
8. Stand in moulds for a minute or two before turning out
