Ingredients
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons citrus extract (lemon, lime or orange)
- 2 teaspoons Citrus zest (lemon, lime or orange)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly (1 stick)
Instructions
- Beat together the eggs and granulated sugar using a hand or stand mixer set on medium speed until smooth and creamy-- 10 minutes. You’ll know the mixture is ready when is flows like warm caramel sauce.
- Add the citrus extract and zest and mix just to combine.
- Add in the flour and baking powder and fold them in gently so the egg mixture does not deflate.
- Fold in the melted and cooled butter.
- Place the madeleine batter in the fridge to chill for one hour.
- Near the end of the chilling step, preheat the oven to 350F and grease a standard madeleine pan with melted butter and non-stick cooking spray.
- Scoop batter into the molds until they are ¾ full (I used a 1 tablespoon scoop) and bake until the madeleines are light brown--about 12-13 minutes.
- Transfer the madeleines to a wire rack to cool.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
