The Recipe

Vegan spiced dark chocolate madeleines (yield 18 madeleines)

Ingredients

For the madeleine cakes:

3/4 cups / 100 g all-purpose flour

1/4 cup / 60 g sugar (or to taste)

1/4 cup / 20 g dark chocolate baking powder

1/2 tablespoon baking powder

1/4 cup / 60 ml vegetable oil (such as sunflower oil or canola oil)

3/4 cups / 175 ml plant-based milk (I used oat milk)

1/2 cup / 25 g dark chocolate, melted

1/3 cup / 30 g almond flour

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder

1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder

For the spiced dark chocolate:

5.3 ounces / 150 g good quality dark chocolate, melted

1 teaspoon cinnamon

dash of cardamom

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 °F/ 180°C.

2. In a bowl combine all ingredients for the chocolate madeleines and mix on high speed until smooth.

3. Transfer the dough (use a spoon or a piping bag) into the molds of a madeleine cake pan and bake for about 20 minutes. Test with a wooden stick. It should come out clean. 

4. Allow the madeleines to cool down before removing from the pan.

5. In a bowl combine melted dark chocolate and spices. Dip each madeleine into the spiced dark chocolate and put on a wire rack until chocolate is firm. ENJOY!
