Equipment

Variations

🌾 Gluten-Free: Replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure your baking powder is gluten-free too. You'll still enjoy the same fluffy texture and rich taste!

🌱 Vegan: Substitute eggs with a vegan egg replacer (like flaxseed meal mixed with water). Use dairy-free milk and replace the melted butter with vegan margarine or coconut oil. For the glaze, opt for dairy-free white chocolate.

Whether you're catering to dietary restrictions or exploring new flavors, these variations make sure no one is left out of the madeleine magic! 🥳✨

Faq

  • Why do my madeleines stick to the mold?

    Ensure you're greasing the molds generously with butter or oil before adding the batter. Consider using a non-stick spray for added ease.

  • Can I use muffin tins instead of madeleine molds?

    While you can use muffin tins, the iconic shell shape of madeleines will be lost. If you do use muffin tins, fill them halfway to avoid overflow.

  • What's the best way to melt chocolate for the glaze?

    Use a microwave-safe bowl and melt the chocolate in 15-second bursts, stirring between each session to avoid burning. Add the vegetable oil once the chocolate is smooth.

  • How can I make sure my madeleines have that classic "hump"?

    Chill the batter for at least an hour before baking. The temperature contrast between the cold batter and hot oven creates that characteristic hump.

  • Can I add other flavorings to the madeleine batter?

    Absolutely! Experiment with lemon zest, vanilla extract, or even a touch of almond extract. Just be sure not to add too much liquid to keep the batter consistency right.

  • How long do madeleines stay fresh?

    Madeleines are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven but will stay relatively fresh for up to 2 days if stored in an airtight container. You can also freeze them for up to a month.
