Madeleines are delightful, small French sponge cakes with a distinctive shell-like shape. They make for a perfect tea-time treat or a delightful dessert. This simple yet elegant recipe will guide you through the process of creating these delicate, buttery cakes with hints of lemon zest.
- Ensure the eggs are at room temperature before you start to achieve better volume when beating.
- Be gentle when folding the flour mixture into the egg batter to maintain the light and airy texture.
- Chill the batter for at least an hour before baking to help achieve the classic 'hump' on the madeleines.
- Grease and flour the madeleine molds thoroughly to prevent sticking and to help form the crisp edges.
- Do not overfill the molds; fill them about three-quarters full to prevent overflow and maintain the correct shape.
By following these steps and mindful tips, you'll be able to bake perfect madeleines that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Enjoy these delicate, buttery cakes with a cup of tea or coffee, and share them with friends and family as a charming homemade treat.
