This week's Tuesdays with Dorie recipe was chosen by Kelly of Baking with the Boys. I bought my mangoes for this recipe yesterday, and was fortunate to find a couple that weren't rock hard. I'm so glad this one was an easy recipe, and I was able to throw it together in between grocery shopping and picking the cat up from the vet (she had her teeth cleaned, and had to have three teeth extracted--ouch!)
I knew as soon as I read the recipe that I had to make madeleines using the silicone madeleine pan I bought in Paris. I cut the recipe in half, replaced the raisins with chopped walnuts, doubled the lime zest, reduced the ginger and added cardamom. My madeleines baked in 20 minutes, with no over browning issues. Because I was using a silicone pan, there was no buttering/flouring, and the madeleines came out so easily. This is my first silicone baking pan, and if I had to choose only one, it would be for madeleines. I rarely make them because of the obsessive buttering and flouring required. This pan will make baking madeleines a breeze.
I tasted one of the madeleines still warm and oh my. I can't imagine they could taste any better after sitting a day (and will they even last that long??) The spices warmed the flavor of the mango, and the walnuts added a great textural crunch.
Thanks, Kelly. This was a terrific pick and one that I know I'll make again.

Mango madeleines - how French! How could you NOT use your new pan?
Love the addition of the cardamom - I added curry and it worked out great.
And yes, they do taste better the next day - if you can believe it. Glad you liked them!

Madeleines! What great fun. I love the way everyone changes it up each week to be creative. Mine was just a plain ole loaf. But delicious.

How creative to do this in a madeline pan! :) Looks delicious!
Mango madeleines - you are brilliant! SO glad that you had a wonderful trip, and that you got to come home and enjoy this mango bread!
I absolutely love the idea of Madeleines! I would never have thought to do that. I need to use my madeleine pan more.
However I do put leftover mashed potatoes in my Madeleine pan. I call them Pot-a-Leines.
How perfectly French! These look fantastic.
So Cute! I love my silicone madeleine pans too. I need to use them more often. Can't wait to hear more about the trip!

Your madelines are so pretty! I'm lusting for a madeline pan but my kitchen cabinets are overflowing as it is. Glad you loved them, and glad you had a great trip! Can't wait to salivate over the pictures.
Paris - what a wonderful city!
What a great idea to make mango madeleines! I am sure they must have tasted wonderful especially with the walnuts!
I don't have a madeline pan, but from your post I am thinking I do and it needs to be silicone. Hope you had a wonderful trip!!
What a completely genius idea! Those look awesome - I am doing this next time for sure!
I love that you used a silicone madeline pan from Paris none the less! These would make perfect *bites* of bread.
I have to say these are the first mango madeleines I have seen. Thanks for baking along!
Lovely madeleines. Cardamom. Now why didn't I think of that. Next time.
