Fiona Gibson's lemon Madeleines recipe from The Woman Who Upped and Left


A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to win a recipe card illustrated by the lovely Fiona Gibson on the run up to the release of her latest book, The Woman Who Upped and Left 



Ingredients:
2 eggs
100g caster sugar
100g plain flour
1 lemon, squeezed and zest grated
Three quarters (3/4) of a teaspoon of baking powder
100g butter, melted and cooled
(the above is on sale at M&S right now!)

1 - Brush tray with butter then shake in a little flour through a 
sieve

2 - Whisk eggs and sugar until lightly foamed, then whisk in butter, baking powder, lemon juice and zest. Leave for about 20 minutes.

3 - Pour mixture into tray and bake at 200 degrees centigrade for 8-10 minutes until light and springy to touch.

Simple!



The Woman Who Upped and Left
by Fiona Gibson

Forget about having it all. Sometimes you just want to leave it all behind.
Audrey is often seized by the urge to walk out of her house without looking back – but she can’t possibly do that.
She is a single parent. She is needed. She has a job, a home, responsibilities…and a slothful teenage son’s pants to pick up.
But no one likes being taken for granted – Audrey least of all – so the time has come for drastic action. And no one’s going to stand in her way…


Review and giveaway coming up here later this week...
