Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a stand mixer, beat the eggs and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until smooth, pale, and fluffy, about 8 minutes.
  2. Gently fold in the all-purpose flour, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, kosher salt, and baking powder.
  3. Fold in the melted and cooled unsalted butter until fully combined.
  4. Cover the batter with plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease the madeleine pan.
  6. Using a small cookie scoop, fill each madeleine mold about three-quarters full.
  7. Place the filled pan into the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  8. Transfer the madeleines to a wire rack to cool completely before dipping in melted white chocolate.
