Placing them on a wire rack may squish the hump or mark the shell pattern which is why they are cooled like this instead. If you don’t have a really good non-stick one then you will also need to dust it with flour and tap out the excess.Bite-Sized DelicaciesYou can use these well-designed, easy-baking pans to make authentic-tasting madeleines for your friends and family! You don’t need to spread the batter out, but try and make sure that it follows the shape of the mold, rather than just sitting in a round blob.
Guy Demarle also offers professional quality FLEXIPAN® ORIGINE madeleine mold that provides exceptionalflexibility, non-stick properties, and resistance to extreme temperatures. When using a metal pan, brush its cavities with softened butter and a pastry brush, then sprinkle flour inside before removing any excess.
Since most madeleine recipes range from 375 degrees Fahrenheit to 425 degrees Fahrenheit, this type of pan is a safe choice. They are very small, light sponge cakes that are baked in pans with shell-shaped depressions giving them their classic appearance. Bake the Madeleines in the hot oven for about 4-5 minutes, until they have formed their humps and are golden around the edges; then turn the oven down to 180°C/160°C fan/350°F/gas mark 4 and bake for another 2-5 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
