Easy Madeleines with 10 minutes Prep

I'm so busy with my kids that I don't have time for baking desserts! After looking at a lot of different recipes, I put this one together for a quick and easy dessert that tastes like the madeleines my mother used to make. Every time I make these, my friends with children always ask for the recipe so I posted it here for the first time. Please try making the patterned madeleines intoo!
I usually use margarine. It's cheap and I always have it stocked in the fridge so I can make madeleines whenever. Margarine also gives a lighter taste than butter. Using butter gives the madeleines a strong taste. You can store these in the freezer. Just let them naturally defrost when you want to eat them. Recipe by Sachimura

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Completely melt the margarine (or butter) in the microwave.
- 2
Mix cake flour and baking powder together. You can also shake to combine in a plastic bag.
- 3
Beat the eggs with a whisk in a bowl. Then add the sugar all at once, and combine thoroughly.
- 4
Sift all the dry ingredients and add to the bowl. Mix all together with a spatula.
- 5
Mix in honey and lemon juice (you can also use lemon juice concentrate) and then add melted butter. Combine everything together well. The batter is now done!
- 6
Bake the batter right away. My oven is old, but I set it at 180°C (350°F) for 20 minutes. If you chill the batter in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour before baking, it makes the madeleines nice and moist.
- 7
While waiting for the over to preheat, pour in the batter and fill 80% of the madeleine cups. If you chill the batter in the refrigerator, make sure to mix it well before pouring into the cups.

This batter won't rise too much. You'll know they're done when they are nice golden color, and you can stick a toothpick in and it comes out clean. I think the baking time will be different in every oven so adjust.

1/2/2010 Edit: If you mix the dry ingredients in a bag by shaking, it works the same as sifting, but of course you can sift them normally.
- 10
Another note: When mixing the dry ingredients, don't worry too much about the smoothness of the batter. It'll turn out fine as long as you get rid of any lumps. You can also use a whisk.

1/15/2010 Edit: When I made these today, I didn't have enough baking powder so had to make it with only 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder but it turned out fine. Feel free to adjust the amount as you like.
- 12
Normally you use 3 g of baking powder for every 100 g of flour. But I added more on purpose because this batter is heavy.
- 13
1/29/2010 Edit: I've been playing around with patterns on the madeleines. For my own notes, I've added a recipe for those too.

My Madeleines My Madeleines
I used to dislike madeleines (I'm not a fan with fluffy and dry baked desserts), but then I found a shop that sold moist and dense madeleines. Ever since then I've loved them. This recipe aims at recreating that store's taste. This is a recipe that I love and treasure.Mix thoroughly so that it becomes smooth and doesn't form lumps. The baking time varies depending on the mold and the oven, so adjust accordingly. I changed the type of mold and oven that I used so I've greatly adjusted the temperature.

Easy Madeleines with Belly Buttons Easy Madeleines with Belly Buttons
I made these "belly button shaped madeleines" by coincidence, so I uploaded the recipe. I tried baking them several times to adjust the sweetness and tenderness to my taste. You can reduce the sugar a little bit, but if you reduce it too much you'll end up with tough madeleines.-When resting the batter and warming the baking tray beforehand, you'll have puffy madeleines with "belly buttons." However, if you rest the batter in the refrigerator, you'll get "shy" belly buttons. The madeleines didn't puff up that much either.-Our electric oven seems to heat correctly if I set the temperature a bit lower. If you have a gas oven, you may need to preheat at 190 °C. If the madeleines are browning too fast, try lowering the heat while baking. Recipe by Raby cookpad.japan -

Simple Apple Madeleines Simple Apple Madeleines
I improved my previous madeleine recipe by adding the winter flavor "apple" and increasing the amount.For those who like the crispy crunch of apples, reduce the microwave time at Step 1. Those who like their madeleines to have a strong flavor should add more butter, and those who want to make it healthier should skip the butter and heavy cream and use margarine instead.The baking time and temperature may varies on your oven, so keep an eye on the madeleines as they bake.

Madeleines Madeleines
When I read Proust for the first time, in my teenage years, I fell in love with the story behind his madeleines. In "Du côté de chez Swann", while drinking tea and eating a madeleine, the smell brings him back to his younger years at his aunt's home. So, my mother gave me a madeleine recipe, and I started baking them. It's been around 15 years that I make madeleines, and it became my favorite dessert, as well as my specialty. Marie-Pierre Labelle
