Ingredients
- 181.8 g Egg whites, whipped to soft peaks
- 29.8 g Oat flour (finely ground)
- 11.9 g Honey
- 1 tsp Lemon zest, freshly grated
Method
- 01Preheat your oven to 375 deg F (190 deg C) and lightly grease a standard shell-shaped madeleine pan.
- 02In a clean glass bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they hold soft, billowy peaks.
- 03Carefully fold in the oat flour, honey, and fresh lemon zest using a rubber spatula to maintain the airiness of the batter.
- 04Spoon the mixture into the prepared molds, filling each about three-quarters full.
- 05Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers spring back when gently pressed.
- 06Remove from the oven and let them sit in the pan for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- 07Serve warm, enjoying the delicate, airy texture and bright citrus aromatics typical of a classic Parisian tea-time snack.
