Almond cakes

Lovely moist subtle cakes. Not difficult to make either - I even blanched my own almonds using this cookbook.

They are very sensitive to slight differences in oven temperature - I had to turn my muffin tin as soon as they had firmed up a little, because at that point the left cakes were already browing nicely and the right ones were still quite moist. And my oven is not that uneven.

They break quite easily as well. Maybe they needed a minute more, because the browner ones held together better.
