English Madeleines Food

ENGLISH MADELEINES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Grease 6 x 120ml madeleine moulds (see tip, below). Put 50g of the coconut in a food processor with the sugar and whizz until the coconut is as fine as the sugar. Tip into a mixing bowl with the butter, flour, egg and yogurt, and whizz with an electric whisk until smooth. Stir in the cherries, then divide between the moulds. Sit on a baking sheet and bake for 35-45 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool for 10 mins, then turn out from the tins to cool completely.
• Heat the jam in a pan or microwave, then sieve to remove the cherry lumps. Tip the remaining coconut onto a plate. Trim any wonky bottoms of the madeleines so they sit flat. Brush a thin coating of jam over each and roll in the coconut to cover. Will keep in an airtight tin for up to 2 days.

MADELEINES

Steps:

• Mix the egg and sugar in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk.
• Begin melting the butter, preferably in a small pan for about a minute and a half.
• Add flour and baking powder to the bowl from step 1 and mix them together.
• Add melted butter to the bowl (You'll use some in step 4, so save some) and mix.
• Let the mixture sit for 10 to 20 minutes and the dough will thicken, it will then be easier to pour into the madeleine mold.
• Take a brush and put some butter on the madeleine mold and put a little bit of flour in it. This will make it easier to take the cookie out of the mold.
• Pour the dough into the mold.
• Bake for about 20 minutes in an oven preheated at 170 degrees (approx. 340˚F).
• Take them out of the mold and let them cool.
• Enjoy!
