Mini Madeleine & Bear Paws Baking Tray

Mini Madeleine & Bear Paws Baking Tray

The French Madeleine or the Spanish Magdalenas go perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee, a hot chocolate or just a cozy get-together with friends. For your own little bear paws, the mold is also perfect. The dough is made quickly and thanks to the non-stick coating nothing sticks to the mold even after baking. The little cakes come off the mold even better with a little baking spray.

The Madleines, or Magdalenas as they are called in the Spanish variation, are wonderfully soft on the inside and nice and crispy on the outside. The fresh lemon or chocolate flavor is supported by butter in French recipes, in Spain this is taken over by olive oil. The bear paws are tangy and juicy little cookies that delight with a delicious chocolate flavor. On this baking tray you bake Guetzli in the perfect size.
