steps
day 1
prepare the vanilla bean canele batter: in a medium pot, combine 2 1/4 cups whole milk & 2 vanilla bean pods, scraped vanilla beans & 2 whole pods, and heat on medium low heat, bring to a boil. cover and let milk infuse for 20 minutes
in another large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar & 1 cup all-purpose flour. pour in melted 1/4 cup unsalted butter and whisk crumbly
pour vanilla bean milk (remove vanilla pods but save them) into crumbly mixture and whisk gently
add in 2 egg yolks & 2 eggs and whisk gently
strain canele batter through mesh sieve into a large glass jug/measuring cup. add in the vanilla pods. cover with plastic wrap so that it touches the batter. chill for 24 hours
day 2
take out canele batter a couple hours before baking to bring to room temperature. whisk thoroughly to combine vanilla bean
once ready to bake, preheat oven to 250f with the canele tray. once heated, removed tray and grease with baking spray. set oven to 450f
pour canele batter into greased canele tray. fill each canele mold about 80% full
bake canele: bake for 15 minutes at 450f. lower oven to 350f and bake for another 45-55 minutes until caneles are deep brown
immediately flip them onto wire rack and let cool for at least an hour so that their crust forms
enjoy!
notes
recipe credits: i referenced baillardan’s canele recipe & more than sweet by marie frank for this recipe
you can replace the 2 vanilla bean pod with a heaping 1 tbsp of vanilla bean paste
caneles are best enjoyed the day of or the next day. on the next day, heat in oven at 350f for 5 minutes and let cool for 15 minutes
