Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a madeleine pan.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in honey and dried lavender. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar and eggs until pale and thick. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, then gently fold in the cooled butter mixture and milk until just combined.
Spoon batter into each madeleine mold, filling about two-thirds full.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers spring back when lightly touched.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for a few minutes before gently transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite tea or coffee.
