Madeleine Batter

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a madeleine pan by greasing it with butter.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In a large bowl, melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Whisk in the granulated sugar until well combined.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture until just combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in Add-ins

    Gently fold in the shredded carrots, raisins, and chopped nuts until evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Fill the Pan

    Spoon the batter into the prepared madeleine pan, filling each cavity about ¾ full.

  8. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  9. 9

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the madeleines to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
