Brown butter & sea salt madeleines recipe

Ingredients

  • 100g brown butter (see tip), melted but cool, plus extra for the mould
  • 2 large eggs
  • 100g golden caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 100g self-raising flour
  • pinch of sea salt
  • icing sugar, to serve
  • small pot of crème fraîche, to serve

Method

  • Heat oven to 210C/190C fan/ gas 61/2 and butter a 12-hole madeleine tin. Beat the eggs, sugar and honey together, then add the flour and salt, and finally mix in the butter.

  • Spoon the mixture into the madeleine holes and bake for 8-10 mins or until puffed up and golden. Turn out onto a cooling rack while you cook a second batch. If you like, you can dust the just-warm madeleines with icing sugar and serve with a spoonful of cold crème fraîche.
