Great as Gifts! Tea Flavored Madeleines
- 2 medium Egg
- 80 grams Sugar
- 50 grams Heavy cream (vegetable based also works)
- 50 grams Salted butter
- 20 grams Almond flour
- 1 dash Vanilla oil
- 3 satchets Tea (I recommend Earl Grey)
- 80 grams Cake flour
- 4 grams Baking powder
- Grind the tea in a mill.
- Mix the tea leaves and heavy cream together.
- Heat in a microwave for about 30 seconds to boil it down.
- Melt butter over hot water or in a microwave.
- First, put the eggs in a bowl, then sugar, heavy cream + tea leaves from Step 2, butter, almond powder and vanilla oil in that order.
- Mix with a whisk.
- Sift in cake flour, baking powder and mix.
- Mix well to make the mixture thick and smooth.
- Cover with cellophane wrap and let sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- Then pour the batter into the cups to about 60% full.
- Bake in a 170C preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Done.
- By the way, the way to make lemon madeleines.... instead of tea leaves, use 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and prepare 1 lemon.
- Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice at Step 4 instead of the tea leaves.
- Peel a lemon and slice into about 5 mm thickness.
- Take the cakes out of the oven once when you have baked for about 5 minutes and place the sliced lemon on top.
- Then bake for the remainder of the time.
- The rest would be the same.
- For your reference - Strawberry Madeleines: They are made in the same way as the lemon version.
- Place a strawberry cut in half, then bake.
