Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350° F (175° C). Grease a madeleine pan and set aside. *see note 1
Combine the almond milk and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes to curdle.
Sift the dry ingredients into a medium size bowl. Add the reserved vegan buttermilk, vanilla and coconut oil. Stir until everything is well incorporated. Do not over mix.
Spoon the batter into the prepared madeleine pan, filling each cup ¾ full. Bake for 10-15 minutes. *see note 2. The madeleines are done when the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow madeleines to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Melt the chocolate in the microwave. Dip each madeleine ¼ way into the melted chocolate. Allow the excess to drip off. Enjoy!
Notes
If you're not using a silicone pan, you should grease and lightly flour your madeleine pan to prevent sticking.
Baking times will vary depending on the pan you're using. The madeleines are done when the tops are lightly golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
