Yield Makes 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons orange blossom honey
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, cooled, plus more for molds
Special Equipment
One 16-cookie madeleine pan with 3x2" molds

Steps:

  • Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl until pale yellow and thick, about 4 minutes. Beat in honey, vanilla, and orange zest. Gently fold in dry ingredients. Add 5 tablespoons melted butter; gently fold into batter. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface of batter; chill for at least 3 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
  • Position a rack in center of oven; preheat to 400°F. Lightly brush madeleine molds with butter. Place pan on a baking sheet. Drop 1 scant tablespoon batter into each mold. Bake until golden and a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove pan from oven, invert, and quickly knock madeleines out of pan. Serve warm on their own or with Ginger-Yogurt Mousse with Pistachio Meringue .

I'm not a big fan of orange blossom honey, but I actually really enjoyed these madeleines. The flavor was subtle and not overpowering. I will definitely be making them again.

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

I had some trouble getting the madeleines to rise properly. They were still tasty, but they didn't look as nice as the ones in the pictures. I think I might have needed to beat the egg whites a bit longer.

These madeleines were a nice change from my usual chocolate chip cookies. They were light and airy, and the orange blossom honey glaze added a nice touch of sweetness. I will definitely be making these again.

These madeleines were a bit of a disappointment. The texture was dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland. I think I may have overmixed the batter, so I will try again with more care next time.
