Servings: 12 madeleines
Calories: 121kcal
Equipment
- Madeleine pan
Ingredients
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour plus more for dusting
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp light brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 2 tsp finely grated lemon or orange zest
- 6 Tbsp unsalted butter melted, warm
- nonstick vegetable oil spray
- confectioner's sugar
Instructions
- Whisk baking powder, salt, and flour together in a small bowl.
- Whisk eggs, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, honey, and lemon zest in a medium bowl until smooth. Whisk in dry ingredients until just incorporated, then whisk in melted butter until smooth. Transfer batter to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag and chill at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 400F. Lightly coat madeleine pan with nonstick vegetable oil spray and dust with flour, tapping out excess. Snip end off pastry bag (or 1 corner of resealable bag) and pipe batter into each mold, filling two-thirds full (you may have a little batter left over).
- Bake madeleines until edges are golden brown and centers are puffed and lightly spring back when gently pressed, about 5 minutes for mini and 8-10 minutes for regular cakes.
- Tap pan against counter to release madeleines. Dust with confectioner's sugar and serve warm.
Notes
- Make ahead: Batter can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
