Caneles

Daisy Bun over at fullthymestudent asked me about a caneles recipe.

Here it is until i get the time to do a full article with step by step pictures

You will needs caneles molds. The original ones come as copper molds.
I have the copper with tin lining and the silicone ones.
They both work well. The copper ones are a little bit more difficult to work with.

Ingredients: (for about 15 caneles)

  • 500 ml (1 pint) milk
  • 125 g all purpose flour
  • 250 g sugar
  • 3 eggs

Beat the three eggs; boil the milk; pour the boiling milk over the beaten eggs while whisking the eggs to prevent them from cooking. Let it cool down.

Mix the dry ingredients (flour and sugar). Add the milk/eggs little by little to get a smooth batter. Store in a covered tupperware in the fridge for a day.

The next day, pre-heat the oven at 400F.

Melt some butter. Add a littleĀ  bit of bees wax to the butter. Grease the molds with a brush. If using copper molds, this step is critical.

Pour the batter to 3/4 of the molds and bake for about an hour.

Unmold while hot.
