Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for molds
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fleur de sel or pinch of fine sea salt
1/3 cup sugar
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Alternatively, this can be done in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.

  • Place a heavy, large baking sheet in oven; preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Place madeleine pan on preheated baking sheet. Bake until golden and big bumps on top spring back when touched, 11 to 13 minutes. Remove pan from oven and immediately release madeleines from pan by rapping pan on counter. If any stick, use a butter knife or fingers to help release. Let cool on a wire rack.
