  To EAR, as commented on the subject of Friand tins, perhaps you could use deep Yorkshire pudding tins/deep small bun tins, or even muffin bun cases in small bun tin trays. Hope this is of some help to you. From Pippa of Wolverhampton.

  To Ear, I think Lakeland have friand tins. I got mine in Australia in a supermarket, but that isn't much help to you! Also TK Maxx often have things like friand tins. It all depends on where you live. As Pippa says you can use muffin tins instead.

  I used tinned apricots,well drained as they are a seasonal fruit here and the recipe worked beautifully. I did make sure they were well drained of the fruit juice. friands are a 'cult' food here in Oz so for once getting hold of the necessary equipment/ingredients was easy.I think next tiem I will add some vanilla.
