Preparation10 minutes
Cooking20 minutes
Total30 minutes
Servings: 24 madeleines

Ingredients 

  • 75 grams pistachios
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 50 grams honey
  • 100 ml coconut oil melted
  • 1 lemon juice and zest
  • 100 grams spelt flour
  • A pinch of salt
  • tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Madeleine pan

Instructions

  • Finely grind the pistachios with 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar in a food processor.
  • In a bowl, beat the eggs until light and airy, about a few minutes. Add the honey, coconut oil, and lemon juice and mix for another minute on high speed.
  • Combine the (spelt) flour, ground pistachios, salt, and baking powder, then add this mixture to the batter in batches. Finally, gently fold in the vanilla extract and lemon zest until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Let the batter rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Grease a madeleine pan and dust it with flour.
  • Divide the batter among the madeleine molds, filling them not quite to the top. Tap the pan twice on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  • Bake the madeleines at 350°F/175°C, (conventional oven) for 14-15 minutes, until cooked through and lightly golden. Remove them from the pan immediately and let cool on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
How to store
Stored in an airtight container, the madeleines will keep for 3-4 days.
