Almond Croissant Muffins
  1. Preheat to 170C / 340F fan. Line muffin tin.

  2. Batter: Cream the 100g butter and brown sugar for 2-3 mins until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. Whisk in yogurt, milk and vanilla. In another bowl whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Fold dry into wet until just combined. Do not overmix.

  3. Frangipane: Cream 75g butter and granulated sugar. Beat in eggs, almond extract and 1 tbsp milk. Stir in almond flour until thick and spoonable. If it looks split, add 1 tsp more almond flour.

  4. Fill each muffin cup ⅓ with batter, then add about 1 heaped tbsp frangipane in the middle then flaked almonds.

  5. Bake 22-26 mins until golden and a skewer in the muffin part comes out clean. The frangipane will still be soft like at a bakery.

  6. Cool in tin 10 mins, then on a wire rack. Only dust with icing sugar once fully cool or it will melt into grease.
