As a French person, enjoyer of madeleines and someone who cooks, I understand why I was suggested your video while looking up madeleine recipes on French youtube. FIY if you're interested, out of all these recipes the one that looks the most like all the French madeleine recipes I know (as well as mine) is Martha Stewart's with the honey and milk and with the chilling overnight with a plastic wrap cover. Also all French recipes I know have a more runny consistency that still holds a little shape, similar to the NYT one, and the traditional flavouring is either lemon/orange or orange flower water (fleur d'oranger) which is extremely popular in all of French baking (and imo the single best baking flavour to exist, ever). Vanilla is not a veyr popular flavouring in traditional French baking and pâtisserie in general. Oh also everyone says that the humps come from the temperature shock of a very cold, overnight batter and mold going into a very hot, preheated oven.

From one of the KZread French style Pastry chefs, it's seems that honey is used a lot in addition to sugar. It's high on fructose, so Naturally sweeter. I've read the chilling was to let the flour hydrate, making a moist texture

Agreed. I appreciate the scientific method and attention to detail. Definitely the longest recipe video I've ever watched on KZread.

WOW! In my book, YOU are thee quintessential scientist and you definitely should be employed by America's Test Kitchen! If I had any pull, you'd have your first payroll check already. (I want to say so much to you that I took notes). With regards to filling the molds, why don't you use a small size 'ice cream' scoop? I'm not sure of the quantity each of those scoops have, but...). Have you seen Anna Olson's Madeline video? I was recently at a church rummage sale where I snagged two brand spanking new Madeline pans for a quarter! (Yes, 12-1/2 cents for 2!)..... but now I'm too intimidated to use even one! Last, but by no means least - You're Brilliant! You have a memory like a huge sponge and I am completely jealous. You're super intelligent and some kitchen, somewhere is looking for you. I would seriously recommend to you to attach your Madeline video to your resume and send it off to America's Test Kitchen/Food Network post haste. YOU are the type of Pro they are looking for...... do not hesitate - do it today. (Even though Martha's recipe wasn't so great, she'd love to see your video. She has an open mind and she has lots of people working for her.) YOU'RE FANTASTIC! ❤

I’m making preppy kitchen’s now - because of you! 😊

Thanks for the post. A friend and I made two versions of Madelines yesterday; the main difference being chill time. All had humps, but varied in the "colour" of the shell base. I prefer orange to lemon, and just a touch of vanilla to rid the egg smell of the batter. We adjusted the cooking times, between 7 - minutes and dropped the oven temp to about 185C. Some of yours have the same variation of colour...Likely due to the cool spots in the oven. Take home messages i) use a heavy tray ii) use best quality unsalted butter, French if you can get it iii) butter and dust the tray iv) chill the batter (at least and hour) and tray 10 minutes v) centre oven position vi) remove before they sweat and then dust with icing sugar vii) eat when hot. Batter keeps for two days and make small batches as needed. Enjoy.

Like everyone else, I was suddenly on the search for Madeleine recipes and found your video. Thank you for more or less doing the leg work for us. Your experimentation was great, you were clear in your narration and presentation. You have a beautiful nature about you that puts me at ease while experiencing the video. Job well done!

YOU are amazing!! Thank you so much your thoughtful research! I ultimately ended up using the process from Sally’s Baking Addiction to make Lemon, Chocolate and Almond cookies. I liked beating the eggs and sugar, using browned butter and toasted almonds. Mixing some batter into the melted butter. Batter rests only 45 minutes. While one was resting, I made the next flavor. Recipe makes 24 - perfect for two pans. Oh, I also buttered the. Chilled the pans and put hey popped right out. Very satisfied with the results - nice pearl on top and good ridges on the bottom. They should be served soon. They get “solid” quickly, but still taste delicious. Going to try the stir and bake ones next time. I made them to celebrate Mary Magdalene’s Feast Day on 22 July! Thanks again.

I have followed both preppy kitchen and sallys baking addiction for a while. These are my top 2 favorite bakers. I've made preppy kitchen's Madeline's many times and each time they come out great. Now I have to try Sally's Baking addiction. Thank you for this video. I also love America's Test Kitchen and your research reminded me of how they conduct their research. Well done! 🎉

This information was spot on. So helpful because I too, decided I wanted to make Madeleines and as I looked at recipes I was a bit frustrated by the differences. You actually helped me make my decision which was to go with the Preppy Kitchen recipe. I found that "Shortbread vs. Scottish Shortbread" recipes are similarly confusing. All these nuances, but two shortbread recipes I tried, one rested in the fridge in a tart type mold vs the recipe that went straight into the oven. Hands-down the refrigerated recipe won in texture.

You're so welcome! I love when my unscientific experiments can save someone else the hassle! And now I want to go test shortbread recipes... hm....

Flavored and scented with vanilla, lemon or orange zest (or both) and exotic and ethereal orange flower (blossom) water, these are (for me) the epitome of what a classic Madeleine should taste like. They are completely addictive. Unfortunately, I have no idea where I got the recipe, except it was during my years living in (my beloved) Boston around 1979. I recall the first time I made them, the aroma was exquisite. I could hardly wait to brew a pot of tea and allow the Madeleines to cool and dust with confectioner’s sugar. I have yet to find another recipe like this one. I can only say I am so happy I happened upon it many years ago. NOTE: Today, with clarified butter (ghee / Trader Joe's etc.) being readily available, one can omit the time needed to clarify the butter. Also note, this recipe calls for CAKE FLOUR. I have yet to come across any other Madeleine recipe calling for cake flour. This recipe truly calls to mind Marcel Proust's paean to the Madeleine & Linden (lime blossom) Flower Tea. Yes, I've had these amazing Madeleines with Linden Tea & all I can say is WOW!! These diminutive cakes will disappear in a flash. Yield: about 36 1 cup cake flour, sifted 3 large eggs, room temperature 1 cup sugar ¾ cup of butter, melted, clarified and cooled 1 tsp pure vanilla extract 2 tsp grated orange or lemon zest (or half and half) 1 tsp orange flower water Additional butter and flour for prepping the Madeleine pan(s) Confectioners' Sugar for dusting the cooled Madeleines (optional) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush Madeleine tin with butter generously, then dust with flour. Prepare a double double boiler or bain Marie with water. The pan should be large enough to accommodate the bowl of your mixer. Bring the water to a simmer. Sift flour into a bowl and set aside. Heat butter slowly until melted, clarify it of foam and sediment and then set it aside to cool. In a large mixer bowl, work the eggs, sugar and vanilla with a wooden spoon until well blended. Set the bowl over the pan of barely simmering water, stirring constantly until the mixture is just lukewarm. Remove from heat. Beat with your hand or stand mixer on high until the mixture is light, fluffy and creamy and about tripled in volume (5-10 minutes). Gently, fold in the flour, citrus zest. Stir in the cooled clarified butter and orange flower water. Do not beat but continue folding and cutting from the bottom of the bowl with your wooden spoon or spatula until not traces of dry flour or running butter remains. Brush your Madeleine tin(s) with butter and dust with flour. Spoon the batter into the prepared Madeleine tin(s). Bake in 400 degree oven until edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 8-10 minutes. Cool the Madeleines on a wire rack. Dust with confectioner’s sugar or dip in orange flower water citrus glaze (recipe follows) Store the Madeleines uncovered or in a container for up to three days. They’re best when eaten the day they are made. You may also freeze them in double bags which are tightly sealed. If freezing, don’t dust with confectioner’s sugar or glaze them but do that after they are thawed to room temperature. NOTE: Madeleines can be flavored as desired, including chocolate, lemon, orange, rum or other liqueur flavoring. Finely chopped nuts can be added to the batter, a classic being almond with almond flavoring.

I just made a batch, and every time I notice differences in the recipes. The one I just made, I noticed it didn't say to chill but I thought that was supposed to be standard so I did anyway! Nice gradual humps on each of them, but maybe a bit small. Also, for anyone hunting for fun flavors to add, I've started making mine lavender flavored! I tried it once on a whim and it worked so well I did it again. Just add in some edible lavender as you brown the butter and strain it out. Very yummy if you like floral flavors!

One of the benefits of chilling is that it gives more time for the flour to fully hydrate. Hydration doesn't "link" gluten strands, mixing does that, but it activates the gluten, which should result in a fluffy texture.

Really great job! I recommend trying Larrouse Gastronomique classic Madeleine recipe. I found it to work best, no chill needed, and the bit of lemon juice helps activate the baking powder. The batter is silk in the beginning but will become stiff if left out. It says 20 minutes for baking but I found based on your oven, might want to go under.

I now know much more about a cookie I have never tasted. I am now curious

There was no refrigeration nor baking powder at the time the recipe was developed. What you experience here are different evolutions of the receipt. I translate here the recipe from an old cookbook (around 1920), it's in 3 lines: 150g flour, 150g sugar, 125g butter, 2 big eggs, flavouring of your choice vanilla, lemon,... . Work the sugar and eggs into a white dough, gradually add the flour and soft butter and then the flavoring, fill the pan and bake in a hot oven ( around 200°C ) for 8 to 10 minutes. With a little experience, I feel that thiss receipt can be done without any measurement, to the exception of the number of eggs: for instance starting to add sugar to the eggs untill the color is good, then butter and flour, to get near the expected volume of batter then adjust consistency with more butter or flour.
