Ingredients
- 19.7 g Wheat flour, all-purpose
- 24.8 g Egg, large, beaten
- 7.4 g Almond flour (finely ground)
- 9.0 g Honey, wildflower
- 5.1 tsp Lemon zest, fresh
Method
- 01Preheat your oven to 375 deg F (190 deg C). Butter and lightly flour a traditional shell-shaped madeleine mold.
- 02In a small bowl, whisk the egg and honey together until slightly frothy and pale. Gently fold in the wheat flour, almond flour, and fresh lemon zest until the batter is smooth and aromatic.
- 03Spoon the batter into the prepared mold, filling each cavity about three-quarters full. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the characteristic 'hump' on the back of the madeleine has risen and feels firm to the touch.
- 04Remove from the oven and unmold immediately onto a wire rack. Serve warm, enjoying the delicate lemon fragrance and the tender crumb.
