Lemon Tea Madeleines - eggs

Method

• Combine the ingredients and sift them well.
• Melt the butter and mix it with the vegetable oil.
• Break the eggs into a bowl and beat them well.
• Then add all of the sugar and whisk the mixture until it doubles in size.
• Add the honey, lemon, and tea in that order, stirring after each addition.
• Add in the sifted ingredients and mix well with a whisk until the mixture is no longer floury.
• Re-heat the melted butter and add it into the bowl from Step 3 in 3 batches while still hot, folding it in with the whisk.
• Pour the mixture from Step 4 into the madeleine moulds and let the mixture sit for 1 hour.
• Then bake the madeleines at 180C for 15 minutes.
• (These temperatures and times are estimates.
• Adjust if necessary.)
• If you don't have a lot of time, you can bake the madeleines straight away without letting them sit, but it's best to let the mixture rest for an hour.
• The deliciously fluffy centre is full of tea leaves.
