Madeleines - fail-proof and easy madeleine recipe. These madeleine cookies are buttery, sweet with crispy edges. Best served with a cup of coffee or tea.
1/4teaspoonbaking powderadded to the all-purpose flour
5oz. (140g)unsalted butter, melted
2teaspoonspumkin spice
powdered sugarfor dusting
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (207°C). Grease the Madeleine pan with butter.
Using an electronic hand mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until thick and foamy. Add the lemon juice into the egg mixture and blend well. Fold in the flour and use a spatula to mix well.
Fold in the melted butter, stir and blend until the butter is well incorporated with the batter. Add the pumpkin spice, stir to mix well with the batter.
Transfer the batter into the Madeleine pan and fill about 90% of each mold. Tap and shake gently. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until they turn slightly golden brown and the center is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a cooling rack. Dust the Madeleines with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
You can skip the pumpkin spice if you don't like them. Add them for Fall-themed Madeleines that taste much better than the ones at Starbucks.
