Ingredients
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons orange blossom honey
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled (plus more for greasing)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Batter
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the eggs and sugar on high until pale and thick—about 4 minutes. -
Flavor & Fold
Beat in the orange blossom honey, vanilla extract, and orange zest. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined, then carefully fold in the melted butter. Avoid overmixing. -
Chill
Press plastic wrap directly onto the batter’s surface and chill for at least 3 hours (or overnight for deeper flavor). -
Bake
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush madeleine molds with melted butter and place the pan on a baking sheet. Spoon 1 scant tablespoon of batter into each mold. -
Finish Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden and springy to the touch. Invert pan and gently knock out madeleines. Serve warm.
