Whisk the egg yolks with half of the granulated sugar, the milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt, then add them to the yolk mixture.
Beat the egg whites with the remaining granulated sugar until glossy and foamy.
Fold the egg whites into the batter in three additions without deflating them.
Divide the batter among small molds.
Bake the mamon in a 175°C oven for 16 to 18 minutes.
Rest the cakes for 10 minutes, then unmold.
💡 Tip: Do not fold the egg whites in harshly; mamon's tall, cottony crumb depends on that foam.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve mamon warm with powdered sugar, alongside coffee or milk.
