My children ask me to make madeleines very often. I use the same recipe every time, but I thought they might get bored with the same taste, so I wanted change it. I was given vanilla pods, so I decided to use a whole pod in one batch. It was so good!

This is an easy recipe. The baking time differs according to your oven, so adjust if necessary. By using a whole vanilla pod, you can enjoy vanilla's rich aroma. For 18-19 cookies. Recipe by Lesser Panda

Steps

1

Grease the moulds and sprinkle with strong bread flour if necessary. Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave. Pre-heat the oven to 170°C.
2

Mix the ★ dry ingredients and sift into a bowl.
3

Mix the eggs, honey, and vanilla beans together and add to the ★ dry ingredients. Stir until evenly combined.
4

Add the melted butter and stir well. Add the rum and stir until the batter is even and smooth.
5

If you have time, rest the batter for more than 1 hour. I put the batter into a piping bag and put it in the vegetable bin in the fridge.
6

Pre-heat the oven to 170°C. Pipe the batter into the moulds to fill up to 80 %. Give several sharp taps to the moulds to flatten the surface.
7

Bake at 170°C for about 20 minutes. When a skewer inserted comes out clean, they are ready. Remove the madeleines from the mould and put on a cooling rack.
8

When almost cooled, cover with cling film and leave to cool completely. Alternately, you can cover with a moistened tea towel while hot and leave to cool.
9

To store them, wrap them in cling film or put in a plastic bags to prevent from drying out.
10

Freshly baked, these are fluffy and have the wonderful smell of vanilla. After cooled, the sponginess is settled and moist. I like them either way.
