Ingredients

Madeleines:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour 150g plain
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2/3 cup caster sugar 150g
  • 4 egg free-range
  • 160 butter melted, gm
  • 2 honey tablespoon
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
Lavender & lemon sugar:
  • ¾ cup caster sugar about 180gms
  • 2 tsp lavender
  • lemon finely grated rind of a small lemon, about 1-1½ tsp

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F and lightly grease 2 x 12-hole madeleine molds with cooking spray (spray the area in between the indentation in case the batter spills over the edges).
  2. In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, eggs, vanilla, honey, and melted butter, and using a whisk mix until you have a smooth batter.
  3. Scoop out about a dessertspoonful per mold. You want to fill it so that it fills the area to level or just below the level.
  4. Bake for 8 – 10 minutes until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  5. While the madeleines are baking make the lavender & lemon sugar by mixing all the ingredients together and either rub between your fingers or pulse in a small food processor to break up the dried flower and allow the lemon zest to fully mix with the sugar.

Notes

  • Madeleines will last a few days when stored in an air-tight container. They also free well when wrapped.
  • To thaw, leave them out at room temperature until defrosted.
