BAKE!

  • Preheat oven to 375F/190C. When the oven is ready take your Madeleine tray out of the refrigerator directly into the oven.
  • Bake for 12 minutes at 375F/190C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your madeleines from 10 minutes). It is ready when their centers have puffed up and their edges lightly golden/brown.
