Step 1

Melt the butter either in your microwave or in a small pot over medium heat. Browning the butter will add a lovely depth or flavor to the cakes but is of course optional. Once melted or browned pour the butter into a bowl and allow to cool.

Step 2

Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder into a bowl then whisk together and set aside.

Step 3

Add the eggs and sugar to the bowl or your stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or a large bowl if using an electric hand mixer. Beat on high until the mixture is a light yellow color with a thick silky texture, about 8-9 minutes. You’ll see the beater leave trails when it’s ready. Mix in the pandan extract and lemon zest toward the end.

Step 4

Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture and mix until just combined. You can sift the flour mixture into the eggs while you fold to avoid getting lumps or over-mixing the delicate batter.

Step 5

Drizzle the butter into the batter and gently mix until just combined.

Step 6

Cover and chill the batter as well as the buttered tins for 1 hour then scoop one tablespoon of batter into each scallop-shaped well.

Step 7

To achieve the famous “hump”, bake madeleines at 425°F for 3 minutes. Then turn off the oven for 8-10 minutes. Finally, turn the oven to 320°F for 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Let cool and enjoy!
