I have to confess I’ve never made Madeleines but with a moniker like “World’s Best” I might just have to get a pan and try these! 🙂
Oh Chris, I thought you would be too busy to read my blog. I thought you would be rocking a baby. As for the name, I did not name them, Cookbook Author,Lori Longbotham did, but I have to say I agree with her. They are very light like a génoise.

Hi,
What is the amount of sugar that I should beat with the eggs?
Thanks
1/4 cup. I am so sorry. I have proof-read the recipe several times and still missed it. I hope I did not cause a big problem. I have corrected the recipe.

I liked your recipe so much that I re-blogged it at my-sweet-addiction.com
I use my madeleine pan almost every week. Love it! And I originally wondered IF I would ever use it!!! I’ll have to try your madeleine recipe. I enjoy a good madeleine with tea!

Great recipe! I just made them last night. I love it’s baking powder-free.
Just curious, though – your recipe doesn’t call for vanilla extract. Really?
I’ve always added vanilla so I added some to our batch and because my family prefers more buttery taste, I cut the lemon zest to about 1/4 the amount. They turned out beautifully.
I went back and checked the recipe and there is no vanilla mentioned. I think it is because she is counting lemon as “the vanilla”. I think you could add any flavoring you want. I also think a little vanilla makes everything better.
I am so glad you made them, and I am even happier that you took the time to come back and let me know you thought they were as good as I did.
You can make your own cake flour by removing 2 tablespoon of flour from a cup of flour then 2 tablespoon of corn starch – then sift it really well. I have only used silicone for cupcakes and I was not happy with the results, but maybe you will have better luck.
Yummy! I just bought new pans..for tiny Madeleines! I am trying this!…hugs…Debbie
These looks so pretty and yummy. I’ve never made them before. Such pretty photography too. (Found you by way of Brambleberry Cottage)
Thank you for commenting. I hope you will try them. They are a delicious cake/cookie.
These are my all time favorite treat from my childhood. Thanks for the recipe. I can’t wait to try them!

Ann, I hope you will try them. I am still thinking about your orange glazed bread. That was the most beautiful presentation.

So happy you enjoyed them. I did not name them, but I do believe they are the best I have ever tasted.
Love anything lemon and Madelines are a favorite so this is a win-win for me. ‘-)
Thanks for the recipe. ~ Sarah

Thank you for visiting. I do hope you will try them. I thought they were really good, I hope you will too.
I don’t have a Madeleine pan, but I think I need one. Gotta make these!
Your delicious madelines were one of the most popular recipes from last week’s Foodie Friday.
Congrats!
This makes me so so happy. Thank you Michael.

must I use cake flour? I’m an ‘all purpose’ baker tho not a professional….
one more question: I have silicone madeline pan – have you tried this type of pan? or what is your opinion on using them for this recipe? Thanks!
You can make your own cake flour by removing 2 tablespoon of flour from a cup of flour then 2 tablespoon of corn starch – then sift it really well. I have only used silicone for cupcakes and I was not happy with the results, but maybe you will have better luck.
Thanks very much. I’ll use the silicon pan for first try since I have it.
I hope it works for you. I feel confident about the recipe so let me know if the silicone produces a delicious madeleine. Good luck.
Hi! I was wondering how many Madeleines this recipe makes. Thanks!!!
Hi Julie, This madeleine recipe makes a dozen madeleines. I hope you enjoy them. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
These really ARE the world’s best madeleines! Also, Luscious Lemon Desserts is a wonderful book, and I’ve loved everything I’ve tried from it.
