Time 25m

Yield 24 madeleines

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 egg
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 large leek, white and pale green part only, well rinsed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°. Spray madeleine tins with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pecans in a large bowl. In a separate small bowl, stir together the honey, buttermilk, egg and 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to a small skillet over medium heat. Add leeks to the pan and sauté just until they are limp and beginning to brown. Stir into the buttermilk mixture. Stir this mixture into the cornmeal mixture just until combined. Spoon the batter into the prepare tins, filling each mold 2/3 full.
  • Bake until firm and golden, 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the madeleines out onto a wire rack. Serve warm.

The madeleines were a complete failure. They didn't rise properly and they were dry and crumbly. I won't be making these again.

I didn't like the flavor of the leeks in the madeleines. I think I would omit them next time.

The madeleines were a bit bland. I think I would add more herbs or spices to the batter next time.

The madeleines were a bit too dense for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use a different type of flour next time.

The madeleines were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would add a little more butter to the batter next time.

These madeleines were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but these madeleines were surprisingly good. The leeks and pecans added a nice flavor and the madeleines were moist and fluffy.

These madeleines were easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used fresh leeks from my garden and they added a lovely pop of color and flavor. The pecans added a nice crunch. I served them with a simple green salad and they were a hit!
