  • Transfer the batter to the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Towards the end of the chilling step, preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a madeleine pan with melted butter and nonstick spray.
  • Scoop 1 tablespoon of batter into each mold, making sure to fill each one about ¾ of the way full.

  • Bake in a preheated oven until the madeleines are light brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Transfer the madeleines to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  • Preheat your oven while you’re waiting for the batter to chill in the fridge! The oven will be nice and hot when you’re ready to bake the Pumpkin Madeleines. 
  • You can drizzle melted white chocolate on top for extra pizzazz.
Storage: Store pumpkin madeleines in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
