I've tried 2 other recipes before this and this one is by far superior - taste, visual and texture. Am trying out your tip for the cocoa powder I read from another comment next! Thank you so much!

@@BakingNicky I've definitely spread the love with this recipe! was wondering if I can add a strawberry puree to make strawberry madeleines? would it turn out too wet?

[@BakingNicky]

Awesome! 😍 Soooo You can try adding a little bit like 1 tbsp And see how the batter looks If you need more than that then you can try adding a tiny bit more flour

Hi Nicky, I've always wanted to make Madeleines for many years because of a lovely Swiss friend who brought these goodies to our children's school. Anytime food was to be brought, here she was with her Madeleines, saying "it's the easiest thing". Well, many years later, I think it's time to try. Just yesterday, I was moseying in a newly opened thrift store (no price tags, one friendly sales woman and a wonderful disarray of many interesting things). Lo and behold, 3 Madeleine baking trays -- two of which I ran away with. Here's to using your recipe and my beginner's luck.

[@BakingNicky]

Oh how exciting! I love a good find at the thrift store 😄Hope they turn out great and that you enjoy them! X

[@cookingwithkf]

These madeleines look so good!

[@BakingNicky]

Thank you! They taste great too! Hope you try them 😊

[@gracetan9496]

Hi Nicky, will certainly try out your recipe. I normally don't like my madeleines too sweet and use less sugar. I wonder if that is why sometime they taste rather salty from the use of baking powder.

[@BakingNicky]

Hi there! How much of the total sugar content are you cutting out? As you know baking is a science and when experimenting with recipes I vary things within 10% for example You’re right in thinking that there is some added saltiness from baking powder, you cut try to reduce the amount but keep in mind that you might not get a super bumpy Madeleine 🙂

[@tehyalim7148]

These look amazing!! I’m going to make them for my French teacher, just wondering- if I am using small eggs for the recipe, are there a certain number of grams needed to fulfill the size you used?

[@BakingNicky]

hi there, sorry took so long to see your message, very good question, my eggs are at around 60g each so what id do is premix 2 small eggs in a bowl and weigh out 60g of that the rest = omelette/scrambled-eggs for breakfast ;) hope your teacher likes them!

Hi , I never get the bump do you know why ? And there is also a lot of bubble once it’s out of the oven ? Do u had baking powder or not ? Thank you

[@angelaharvell2552]

Did the nrown butter have an effect? What about the coating with flour and butter. Was the crisp better than plsin butter?

[@dloh9592]

Hey Nicky, do we have to keep the eggs, flour and sugar in the fridge prior to mixing. Thanks.

[@BakingNicky]

Not necessary at all 🙂

[@s_j5154]

Hi... After baking, how long can we store them in fridge? Also, is madeleines good for shipping out? I'm planning to ship some for my friends.

[@BakingNicky]

Oh these are great questions, to me, madeleines should be consumed immediately because the next day you don't get that crispy crust. Having said that, they can last only 1-3 days id say, since they are small cakes that easily lose moisture so that's why I wouldn't store them in the fridge either. Hope this helps!

[@eunice3676]

hi can anyone please advise me why my madeleines sunk and got a reverse hump, and turned very crispy? i did everything in the video and chilled it overnight too...

[@reaper44p15]

I whisk for 8 min to form nice air bubbles for the lightness .

[@BakingNicky]

This is something I tried with some more traditional recipes but in the end I found that chilling for a long time is THE best thing for Madeleines 🙂

[@valeriasuppa8961]

Nice recipe! What's the yield? It seems you have butter for more than 12 madeleines...

[@BakingNicky]

Great question! I didn’t specify, you’re right this yields 20-24 madeleines depending if you fill your mould 2/3 of their capacity or not 😊

I just bake the Madeleines followed your recipe it’s turned out so crispy and tasty . Thank you for the oven tips too . Is it ok I can add cocoa powder to make chocolate madeleines . How much cocoa powder to add . Please let me know my children love it . Thank you so much .🙏♥️🌹🌹🌹

[@BakingNicky]

Hi, it is so wonderful to read this, thank you! And cocoa powder in madeleines is gonna be amazing for sure! I would start by taking out 1 tbsp of flour and replace it with cocoa powder, if you see that the colour is not intense enough then go ahead and repeat the step. I think 2 Tbsp max should do the trick ;) Please tell us all how this works out :)

[@blushandtuscansun]

Ive seen other recipes they beat it for 8 minutes. What’s the difference?

[@BakingNicky]

Good question, there are many techniques to try and achieve the bump but I find the most effective is to let the batter rest overnight, so I decided to skip the long whisking (although you need to make sure the sugar is incorporated well) and achieved the same results, this is a no-fuss recipe for madeleines 🙂

[@SimoneJoseph17]

I made madeleines twice and I can't get the hump.

[@user-sr1lb5hb2u]

[@thaod711]

I appreciate you sharing your recipe and tips. However, there are some discrepancies in the measurements. I don’t think your conversions between grams and cups are correct. I really wanted to try this recipe but I just don’t know which measurements to go with. One example is the sugar. Surely 125g of sugar is not 1 1/8 cup, unless you’re using powdered sugar maybe. And 1 1/8 cup of sugar is a bit much compared to other madeleine recipes I’ve seen. I’m glad others have had success with this recipe. I personally would not follow it at the risk of wasting time and ingredients. Thanks again

[@BakingNicky]

Oh no, youre so right the converting script from grams tried and failed 😅 Its meant to be 1/2 + 1/8 cup of sugar, the rest is fine, ive checked Thanks for letting me know!
