Makes 24
Preparation: 20 minutes
Cook: 12-15 minutes
175g (6oz) strawberries, hulled
75g (3oz) butter, at room temperature
75g (3oz) caster sugar
50g (2oz) self-raising gluten free flour blend
1 medium egg

Few drops almond extract
40g (11/2oz) flaked almonds
1 Preheat the oven to 180oC (350oF), Gas Mark 4. Separate 24 foil or paper petite four cases and put into 2 x 12 section mini muffin tins. Halve or quarter the strawberries depending on their size and keep 24 pieces to one side. Chop the rest.

4 Leave to cool for 10 minutes then transfer the cakes to a wire rack to cool completely. Pack into a box lined with non-stick baking paper and tie with ribbon. Best eaten on the day of making.
