Why finding guilt-free indulgence matters
Do you crave indulgent treats that don’t sabotage your health goals? Many desserts are loaded with refined sugar, unhealthy fats, and allergens that disrupt gut health, increase inflammation, and lead to long-term health issues. Try our Anti-Inflammatory Madeleines—a delicious fusion of French refinement and wholesome, nourishing ingredients. These madeleines are not just a treat but a powerful ally in your journey to better health.

List of ingredients
MAKES 12-15 madeleines
- 100g Eggs (around 2-3), ideally organic and pasture-raised
- 50g Coconut sugar (available at Rootz Organics)
- 1 tbsp Raw honey
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract or vanilla powder
- A pinch of unrefined salt
- 1/4 tsp Baking soda
- 1/4 Lemon juice
- 50g Wholegrain sorghum flour (ideally sprouted, available at Rootz Organics)
- 50g Wholegrain oat flour (ideally gluten-free and sprouted)
- 100g Extra virgin, cold pressed coconut oil melted (available at Rootz Organics)
To prepare, here are the steps
- Whisk wet ingredients: In a food processor, whisk eggs, coconut sugar, honey, vanilla, and salt until frothy and well combined (about 1 to 2 minutes).
- Mix together dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the sorghum flour, oat flour.
- Add baking soda and drizzle with lemon juice
- Combine Wet and Dry: While the food processor is running, gradually add the flour mix to the wet ingredients, alternating with the oil. Continue mixing until everything is well combined and the batter is smooth (this should take about 2–3 minutes).
- For best results: cover the batter and chill in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight .
- Prepare for baking: Preheat the oven to 170oC and grease the madeleines tray with some coconut oil.
- Fill molds: Spoon the batter into the madeleine molds, filling each mold about 3/4 full.
- Bake: for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and develop their signature hump.
- Cool: Allow the madeleines to cool in the tray for at least a minute then transfer to a cooling rack.
Chef’s Notes:
- Substitutions: Use olive oil for a slightly savory flavor or swap coconut sugar for stevia to reduce sugar content further.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat lightly for that freshly baked feel.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with herbal tea or enjoy as a post-workout snack.
Tips & Customizations
- For Detox Plans: Add a pinch of turmeric to the batter for an extra anti-inflammatory boost.
- For Kids: Incorporate a splash of orange zest or mini chocolate chips to make them irresistible to picky eaters.
- For Exercise Recovery: Pair these madeleines with a protein-rich smoothie to refuel after a workout.
