Elaboració

Pas a pas

  1. 1

    Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

    Uns 5 min

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

    Uns 3 min

  3. 3

    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sifted all-purpose flour, baking powder, lemon zest, and salt.

    Uns 2 min

  4. 4

    Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

    Uns 2 min

    Nota de cuina: Overmixing can lead to tough madeleines.

  5. 5

    Gradually fold in the cooled melted butter until fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.

    Uns 3 min

  6. 6

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the batter for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight. This chilling step is crucial for developing the signature 'hump'.

    Uns 1 h

    Nota de cuina: A longer chill time, up to 12 hours, often results in a more pronounced hump.

  7. 7

    Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Lightly grease and flour a Madeleine pan, tapping out any excess flour.

    Uns 5 min

    Nota de cuina: Ensure the pan is well-greased, especially in the shell indentations, to prevent sticking.

  8. 8

    Spoon the chilled batter into each Madeleine mold, filling them about two-thirds full.

    Uns 2 min

    Nota de cuina: Avoid overfilling, as the batter will expand significantly.

  9. 9

    Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the madeleines have developed a distinct hump in the center.

    Uns 10 min

    Nota de cuina: Baking time may vary depending on your oven and Madeleine pan size.

  10. 10

    Remove the madeleines from the oven and immediately invert them onto a wire rack to cool completely.

    Uns 1 min

    Nota de cuina: Cooling on a rack prevents them from becoming soggy.

  11. 11

    Once cooled, dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired, before serving.

    Uns 1 min
