These wonderful little Madeleines with almond meal and apple sauce are the perfect (healthy) treat when you need a little sweet something to go with your coffee after a nice dinner. I love these almond cakes and I love the fact that they are refined sugar free, so you can enjoy them without all the guilt. Oh, and they don’t have any flour in them either, which just double the benefits.

Madeleines with almond meal and apple sauce + all my favorite spices
I have added some of my favorite spices to these madeleines with almond meal like ginger, my all time favorite spice cinnamon and ground cloves. These spices work so great together with the sweet apple sauce and when you dip the baked madeleines in the melted dark and intense chocolate…oh my.
I made these a few days ago and I have to admit they were gone pretty fast! Luckily I have a new bowl full of homemade apple sauce in the fridge right now, so I guess I’ll have to make a new batch tomorrow…what a shame!
These madeleines with almond meal and apple sauce only gets better after a few days in the fridge, so you can easily double the recipe.

Hi Karla, these look really delicious and healthy. I would like to try them. However, does the water content of branded or homemade applesauce effect the consistency? Do you have a recipe for the applesauce you used in this recipe please? Thanks.
Hi Nancy, I used a storebought that is a bit thin. I will link to it here, so you ca see, unfortunately I don’t have my own recipe for it. https://www.nemlig.com/aeblemos-oeko-usoedet-5007779 Hope this could help. Best, Julie Karla
Thanks! I will try them.
