Marg/CDN would you be willing to share your cornmeal madeleine recipe? Was

Well-known member
in the archives looking for madeleine recipes and came across your post. Was wondering how similar it might be to this corn madeleine I like alot.

Corn Madeleines

6 tbsp melted butter

1-1/2 cups all purpose flour

2 tbsp baking powder

3/4 tsp salt

4 tbsp sugar

1-1/2 cups cornmeal

2 eggs

1-1/2 cups milk

1 bunch scallions, minced

1 cup fresh corn (Pat’s note: I sometimes use canned or frozen corn)

1 tbsp fresh cilantro (alternatives: thyme or rosemary)

2 dashes Tabasco, optional

1 tbsp butter, melted for pans

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush madeleine pan with the 1 T. melted butter. Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix well. Combine all wet ingredients. Add to the dry. Saute the vegetables (Pat’s note: I sometimes don’t saute) and add to the batter. Fill shells almost full. Place pan on a cookie sheet. Bake in the center of the oven for about 15 minutes. Remove the cookie sheet and continue baking until bottoms are golden brown, another 3-5 minutes. Remove from the pan immediately and place on a rack to cool. Repeat process with last half of batter. Yield: 2 dozen. Serve these with soups or chowders in place of the usual crackers.

Pat’s notes: another variation: add chopped canned green chilis and a little sharp cheddar. These madeleines are best served warm from the oven so they retain their crispness.

Yes, this the same one. I used canned corn, extra Tabasco, extra salt, & black pepper.

And knowing me, I probably upped the cilantro as well. And I did add a small amount of chopped chilis. My Mad pans are very tiny so I had to be careful.

I use frozen corn a lot, but it seemed that canned would be better in this. I wonder why I thought that?? And I didn't saute it, nor would I if I used frozen.

Another good one that you posted. We love them with soup in the winter.

Now I have to make sure it makes it into my computer and not just my paper collection.
