  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg and almond extract, then mix until well combined.
  • Fold in the flour, ground almonds, and baking powder until you have a smooth batter.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the lined muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
