Orange Blossom Madeleines
Author: Shumaila
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 24
- ⅔ cup sugar
- 3 large eggs (at room temperature)
- ½ tsp salt
- 1½ tsp orange blossom water
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted with 1 tsp baking powder
- 10 tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- powdered sugar, for dusting
- Beat sugar, egg and salt in a big enough bowl on medium high speed until pale and thick. Stir in the orange blossom water.
- Add the flour and melted butter, alternately, folding gently so the batter loses as little volume as possible.
- Refrigerate the batter (covered), for 45 minutes or until thickened.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Grease and flour a madeleine pan, knocking any excess flour off.
- Scoop 1 tbsp of batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake standard-sized madeleines for 10-13 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.
- (If you have only one pan, bake in sequence, keeping the remaining batter refrigerated.)
- Cool in pan for few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar, for garnish.
