Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar; 1/2 cup lemon verbena leaves, packed (optional); 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1/2 cup instant polenta; 1 1/2 teaspoons Diamond kosher salt; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1/2 teaspoon baking powder; 3 large eggs; 1 1/3 cups extra-virgin olive oil; 1 1/4 cups low-fat milk; 1/4 cup lemon juice; 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon zest; 1 cup powdered sugar; 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Servings: persons

1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup lemon verbena leaves, packed (optional)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup instant polenta
1 1/2 teaspoons Diamond kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 large eggs
1 1/3 cups extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 cups low-fat milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice

1
Heat the oven to 375 F. Place silicone mini-financier molds on quarter sheet pan. If using non-silicone molds, prepare molds with baking spray and omit sheet pan.
2
If using lemon verbena, process granulated sugar and verbena in a food processor until leaves are finely chopped.
3
In a medium bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, flour, polenta, salt, baking soda and baking powder.
4
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, milk, lemon juice, and zest. Add dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
5
Use a small cookie scoop to portion the batter into the mold. Bake until the tops are golden and the financiers are pulling away from the sides, 25-28 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on a rack before removing the financiers from the molds with a small offset spatula and cooling completely on racks. Repeat as needed to use up the batter with your number of mold(s).
6
Once the financiers are cooled, mix the powdered sugar with enough lemon juice to make a thick, opaque glaze. Using a pastry brush, give each financier a thin coating of the glaze and set back on the racks to dry.
