And for the series “turning sweets into savory,” today we prepare savory madeleines with olives and ham, an intriguing variant of the classic sweet madeleines, ideal for appetizers, starters or buffets.
Easy and quick to make, these small savory delights are perfect for surprising guests with a simple yet impressive recipe.
These little bites, with their typical shell shape, turn into a savory version thanks to the addition of ingredients like olives, cooked ham, and mozzarella.
You can enjoy them either hot or cold. I prefer to warm them up for a few minutes in an air fryer.
Make double because they will be a hit!

Ingredients
- 5.64 oz all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 packet instant yeast for savory preparations
- 2.82 oz mozzarella for pizza (shredded)
- 3.53 oz cooked ham (diced)
- 5.29 oz pitted olives
- 4 eggs
- 2 tsp whole milk
- Half tsp salt
Tools
- Molds for madeleines
- Electric Whisks
- Bowl
Steps
Preheat the oven to 356°F.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and vegetable oil until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Add the yeast, salt, and the sifted flour, gradually. For this step, I recommend using electric whisks.
Once you have a smooth and lump-free dough, add the grated mozzarella, the diced cooked ham, and the olives sliced into rounds. Gently mix with a spatula to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Pour the mixture into madeleine silicone molds, being careful to fill them about 3/4 of their capacity.
Bake and cook for 15/20 minutes, or until the madeleines are puffed up and golden on the surface. You can also perform the toothpick test: if it comes out clean, they are ready.
Our savory madeleines with olives and ham are ready.
Remove from the oven and let cool. Enjoy!
