Best Pistachio Orange Madeleines Recipes

PISTACHIO & ORANGE MADELEINES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Liberally grease 16 madeleine moulds (or you could use tartlet tins), then sift over a light dusting of flour.
• Tip the pistachios into a mini chopper or food processor and grind until fairly fine but with a bit of texture. Chop the orange peel finely (not necessary if you are using ready-cut).
• Mix the flour, pistachios, orange peel and sugar in a large bowl. Put the melted butter, egg yolk and orange blossom water in a separate bowl and mix together with a fork.
• Whisk the 2 egg whites in a clean bowl until they form soft peaks. Fold the butter mixture into the dry ingredients, then fold in the egg whites using the whisk blades.
• Carefully spoon the mixture into the prepared moulds and bake for 12-15 mins until golden and firm to the touch. Cool for a few mins in the tin, then turn out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely. Dust with icing sugar to serve. Best eaten on the day.

PISTACHIO ROSE MADELEINES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a food processor, process sugar and rose petals until fine and well-combined. Then, beat this mixture with eggs and vanilla until pale and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
• Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined, being careful not to over-mix. Fold in the cooled butter afterwards.
• Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours (or up to 2 days). Also, place your madeleine pan into the refrigerator or freezer.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter madeleine molds and spoon the batter into each mold, filling it at about 3⁄4 of the way. (No need to spread the batter out in the molds).
• Bake for 5-7 minutes until bottoms are lightly golden and until the tops spring back when tapped. Remove from the pan and cool completely.
• For the glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth.
• Grind rose petals, sugar, and pistachio together in a food processor. (You want the rose petals and pistachios to be kind of coarse this time, as they are for garnish.)
• Dip each madeleine into glaze (or brush glaze on top) and immediately dip tops into rose petal/sugar/pistachio mixture. Let the glaze harden slightly before serving.
• Enjoy!
