FFWD Week #51: Honey-Spiced Madeleines

These Madeleines called out to me a few months ago, and after trying them I was determined to make them again this fall, when there flavours would be perfect. I was so glad to see these on the schedule! I made the mistake of quickly glancing through the ingredients, quickly deciding I had them all and then not looking at the recipe again until I was ready to bake. As a result, I skipped the orange zest :( and added a few squirts of lemon juice instead.
I don't own a Madeleine pan, but a dear friend of mine does. Thanks friend!
I am so excited that fall is here! I can not wait to start baking with pumpkin again!

  1. Love the fun polka dotted backround!
    The dusting of powdered sugar makes them picture perfect :-)

  3. Cute photo.. did the juice work? I had to borrow an orange for mine as the one I thought I had was appropriated for a cocktail just before I started in the kitchen. Bad spouse.

  6. Sis. Boom.: I can't notice the lemon juice in the baked cookies, but I think it orange would have really added something!

  7. Ah, lucky you - none of my friends have madeleine pans lying around. They would probably expect me to have one on hand! Your madeleines look great, Monica.

  8. They look delicious. I didn't have an orange either, but I did use the zest of a lemon. It wasn't very noticable though. I bought my first winter squash this weekend. The season's are a-changing.
