Servings: 12 madeleines
Prep Time15 minutes mins
Cook Time8 minutes mins
Total Time23 minutes mins
- 60 grams Unsalted butter - melted
- 1 Egg - Large
- 50 grams Golden Caster Sugar
- 50 grams Plain White Flour
- 1 Orange finely grated zest
- 0.5 tsp rosewater
Preheat the oven to 190°C / 375°F GM5. Use some of the melted butter to grease 12 madeleine mould tin. Measure 50ml of the remaining butter and set aside to cool
Whisk the egg and caster sugar until the mixture is very thick and mousse-like, and the beaters when lifted out of the batter leave a clear trail.
Sift the flour on to the batter mix and fold gently in. Then fold in the orange zest and rose water (if using) and the cooled melted butter
(I chilled overnight at this point)
Fill each madeleine mould with the mixture and bake for 7-8 minutes. Turn out onto a cooling rack
