Savory Herbs de Provence Madelines

Savory Herbs de Provence Madelines

We love traditional Madeleines at Coco Fine Foods, the sweet French shell-shaped mini-cakes.
What we enjoy even more is the savory variety. Ideal as a pre-dinner cocktail bite, with a glass of crisp Rose or Chablis.

Savory Madeleines with Herbes de Provence, Parmesan, and Nicoise Olives are a sophisticated French appetizer, featuring a light, airy texture enriched with olive oil. 

This is a versatile recipe so feel free to experiment. Exchange olives for chopped sun dried tomatoes. Parmesan cheese for Goat Cheese. Basil instead of Herbs de Provence. The variations are endless and a delightful surprise for your guests!

Ingredients:
1 T Butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup plus 1T flour 
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp Coco Fine Foods Herbs de Provence
A pinch of Sea Salt and a grind of fresh black pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup Niçoise black olives, chopped

Method:
1. Heat the oven to 375F. Butter the Madeleine molds and dust with 1T flour. Tap out excess.
2. Whisk 3 eggs until light.
3. Next, gently stir-in flour, baking powder, Herbes de Provence, salt, pepper and olive oil until just combined. 
4. Finally, add grated Parmesan and chopped black olives. 
5. Chill batter for 60 minutes or overnight. When ready to bake, fill the prepared Madeleine molds  just to the top.
6. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and firm.
7. Serve warm, or at room temperature,  and enjoy.

Makes 12 Madelines.
