INSTRUCTIONS

Melt the butter and honey in a saucepan and simmer until golden brown. Leave to cool.

Whisk the eggs, caster sugar, and brown sugar together for 8-10 minutes in a stand mixer until the mixture has tripled in volume and looks like a “ribbon” when the whisk is lifted.

Fold the sifted flour and melted butter into the egg mixture until it is incorporated, before adding the orange and lemon zest. Pour into a plastic container and rest in the fridge for 3 hours.

Grease the madeleines molds with butter, then dust with flour.

Pour the madeleine batter in each mold and cook at 375ºF for 12 to 15 minutes, until firm and golden.
