  • 1
    Pre-heat the oven to 190°C.
  • 2
    Using a pastry brush and a few tablespoons of melted butter, grease the madeleine pans.
  • 3
    In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the eggs, sugar and salt on medium-high speed until thick.

    This should take between 5 and 10 minutes.
  • 5

  • 6
    Toss the orange zest with the sifted flour and gently mix the mixture into the eggs.
  • 7
    Fold in the melted butter until well combined.
  • 8
    Spoon the batter into the greased madeleine pans and place in the pre-heated oven.
  • 9
    Bake for 6-8 minutes, until the edges turn golden brown and the cookies are spongy to the touch.
  • 10
    Remove the cookies from the pan as soon as they come out the oven (you should be able to just turn the pan over some parchment paper and let the cookies drop out.
  • 11
    Cool on parchment paper or a cooling rack.
  • 12
    Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for several days, but they will go stale quickly.

    Of course, some people love them stale, so use your own judgment !
  • Ready !
