Ingredients
For the madeleines
- 4 eggs
- 150g butter
- 150g cane sugar
- 165g gluten-free oat flour
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 10g dry yeast
- 1 tbsp milk
For the bilberry chia jam
- 3 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp Natural Nordic bilberry powder
- Water (enough to cover and hydrate the chia)
Directions
Melt the butter and let it cool.
- In a bowl, lightly whisk the eggs and sugar (no need to beat until pale).
- Add the cooled butter, then mix in the oat flour, baking powder, vanilla sugar, and dry yeast.
- Stir in the milk until smooth.
- Let the batter rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 210°C.
- Fill madeleine molds.
- Bake at 210°C, then immediately reduce to 180°C and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Once cooled, carefully make a small opening and fill each madeleine with the blueberry chia jam using a piping bag or small spoon.
Bilberry chia jam filling
- Mix the chia seeds, bilberry powder, and water in a bowl. Let it sit for at least 10–15 minutes until it thickens into a jam-like consistency.

Recipe Note
This recipe is also featured in a video — and the same berry-chia mix was used in gluten-free oat cookies! You can make the jam thicker or thinner by adjusting the amount of water according to your desired outcome.
