Keto Madeleines
Description
The recipe uses almond flour and powdered sweetener as low-carb alternatives to traditional flour and sugar. Melted unsalted butter and heavy cream add moisture and richness. Eggs provide structure, while baking powder and xanthan gum help achieve a light texture with good volume. Vanilla extract imparts gentle flavor. Baking at 350°F in a well-greased madeleine pan produces small cakes with lightly golden edges and a soft crumb.
After baking, cooling completely before removal keeps the madeleines intact, and dusting with sweetener adds a finishing touch. The recipe yields nine madeleines around 21 grams each, containing approximately 0.7 grams net carbs each.
These madeleines can be stored in an airtight container for up to four days or frozen for up to three months. Using a silicone mold requires thorough greasing as it browns less than metal pans. Browned butter can be used for enhanced flavor if desired.
Ingredients
- ½ cup almond flour 50g
- 2.5 tbsp butter 37g, melted, unsalted
- 2.5 tablespoon powdered sweetener 25g
- 2 egg medium
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream aka double cream
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 Fahrenheit / 175 Celsius / 155 fan and grease the madeleine mould with melted butter.
- In a bowl or with a food processor, blend the melted butter, cream and sweetener until smooth.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract and blend until combined. Add the almond flour, baking powder and xanthan gum and mix.
- Spoon the dough into a well-greased madeleine pan. I used a silicone madeleine mould. Do not overfill!
- Bake for 15 - 17 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and allow to cool com-pletely before removing from the pan.
- Dust with powdered sweetener.
Notes
- Yield is about 9 madeleines, each approximately 21 grams with 0.7g net carbs.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Grease silicone molds thoroughly to prevent sticking and achieve even baking.
- Optionally, brown the butter before mixing to deepen the flavor.
