Equipment

  • madeleine baking tray

Ingredients
  

  • 125 g all purpose flour
  • 1 rounded tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 ½ tsp dried organic lavender flowers I used organic blooms that are dried for brewing tea or making skin care products.
  • 100 g white granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup oat milk
  • 3 ½ tbsp neutral oil

To be added right before baking

  • frozen blueberries I had about 3-4 small Swedish wild blueberries per madeleine cake

For decoration

  • vegan white chocolate this is totally optional, but it is delicious!

Instructions
 

  • Grind the lavender blooms to small pieces. Then mix them in with the sugar.
  • Do not add the blueberries into the batter. They will be added directly into each madeleine when you have distributed the batter into each mould in the madeleine pan.
  • Add all of the wet ingredients to a mixing bowl and stir.
  • Stir in the lavender sugar.
  • Sift in the flour and other dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
  • Cover the mixing bowl so it's airtight. Place the bowl in the fridge and let it chill for 24 hours.
  • When the chilling time is over, preheat the oven to 185℃.
  • Prepare the madeleine pan. I used a silicone pan with 9 forms.
  • Scoop some of the batter into each form. Only fill them about two thirds of the way because they will rise.
  • Plop a few blueberries into each madeleine right before baking. This will stop them from sinking to the bottom of each mini cake.
  • Bake the madeleines for about 17 minutes, or until they are golden brown. So keep an eye on them from about 15 minutes. The time it takes for them in the oven depends on what size and kind of pan you use, and on your oven. I find with silicone pans like I used, it usually takes a couple minutes extra until they are done baking. So adjust the time accordingly.
  • Let them cool completely before you decorate them with white chocolate.
  • Once the cakes have cooled, pop them out of the pan. Clean the pan.
  • Carefully melt the white chocolate.
  • If you wish, you can sprinkle a few lavender blossoms into each form in the tray to make them extra pretty, but this is optional. Skip that step if you don't want to eat the blossoms because they will stick in the white chocolate. Then dollop white chocolate into a form in the madeleine tray on top of the lavender. Press a madeleine cake down into the white chocolate so it's laying properly in the chocolate. Leave the cake there until the chocolate has hardened. Continue this process until each cake has a white chocolate coating. I placed the pan in the fridge to set the chocolate.
  • Once the chocolate has set, remove the madeleines from the baking tray.
  • Enjoy!!
