The secret to the “perfect” madeleine is a balance between a slightly crunchy crust and moist, fluffy interior. This gluten-free, refined sugar-free recipe lacks nothing in texture and has a toasted, golden flavor to boot!
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup sweet rice flour
- ½ tsp guar gum
- ½ tsp baking powder (note: not all baking powder is gluten free)
- ¾ stick unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp almond extract
- Zest of 1 lemon
Instructions:
- Heat over to 400-425 degrees.
- Mix flour, guar gum and baking powder in a bowl. Set aside.
- Beat the eggs and sugar until thickened, for about 3 minutes.
- Add almond extract and lemon zest to eggs and sugar. Beat until mixed.
- Add melted butter to liquid mixture. Beat until thoroughly mixed.
- Gently, fold dry ingredients into liquid mixture with a spatula.
- Grease your Madeleine pan(s).
- Spread a heaping teaspoon of batter into each indentation of your Madeleine pan.
- Bake each tray of Madeleines until golden (10-12 minutes)
