Lunchbox madeleines from Baking & the Meaning of Life: How to Find Joy in 100 Recipes (page 90) by Helen Goh

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Can substitute orange juice or water for rum.

    Lovely. Haven't tried freezing them yet, but they are heavenly straight from the pan.

    So good they got made again, the same week.

    A simple and wholesome treat. The tablespoon was too much for my tin too - so I definitely agree with the other comment. I omitted the raisins (but still used the 20 mls of orange juice) and that was totally fine.

    Very tasty. A heaping tablespoon of batter was too much for my molds so I would bake a couple first and see what works for you.
