Serves around 20-25  

160g (T45 or 00) flour

10g baking powder

160g brown butter

3x eggs

100g caster sugar

70g honey 

1x vanilla pod, split and scraped

Cinnamon sugar coating

250g sugar

1x vanilla pod(scraped) or 1tsp of vanilla powder

5g salt 

3g ground cinnamon

1. Start with preparing sugar coating so it's ready to be used once you take the madeleines out of the oven. Then to make the madeleines:

2. Sift the flour and baking powder together 

3. Make the brown butter first and keep it warm on the side until needed.

4. In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the eggs, sugar, and honey until double in volume. 

5. Gradually mix in the sifted flour and baking powder, when combined add the hot brown butter and mix until all emulsified.  

6. Chill the batter in the fridge for at least 24 hours, but ideally 2 days. 

7. Brush a madeleine baking tray with melted butter and preheat the oven to 170˚C

8. Divide your batter evenly between the cups and bake in the oven for around 10-12 minutes until golden. 

9. Take them out of the tray and coat them in the cinnamon sugar made earlier. 

10. Best to enjoy them still warm, straight from the oven!
