I have shared a bit about my baking journey on my Instagram account, but here on the blog I'm going to start the story off with this Madeleine recipe. I have never really been into baking. Probably because I've never been the skinniest, so why have sweets hanging around? Or honestly, it could be the fact that I use no precision when I cook so baking seems so foreign to me. However, I started experimenting with crusts for pies and quiches at the start of quarantine and a little bit of an addiction began. Then about a month ago, I created a menu for a French inspired shoot (pictured in this post) and wanted to keep things classic. I poured over France, the Cookbook for a few days reading the recipes. When I got to a Madeleine cake recipe, it was familiar and the ingredient list was small. Arrogance got the best of me and I told myself I could easily whip them up.
