Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy. Gradually add the flour mixture, then stir in the melted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until well combined.

  2. 2

    Chill the Batter

    Cover the batter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease the madeleine molds with butter.

  4. 4

    Fill the Molds

    Spoon the chilled batter into the prepared madeleine molds, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers spring back when lightly touched.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the madeleines from the molds and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve with fresh strawberries and whipped heavy cream.
