Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, sifted wheat flour, and sugar. This is your flour mixture. Set aside.

- Gradually add flour mixture to the bowl. Mix until you have a smooth batter.
- Gradually add beurre noisette to the bowl, continuing to whisk and form the madeleine batter.

Notes
Buerre Noisette
Beurre noisette is brown butter. You can make it by heating butter in a saucepan until it turns golden brown and emits a nutty aroma. Just be careful not to overcook the butter at which point it’ll start to go black, and taste bitter/burnt.
