Ton Ton's Canneles
- 1000 ml Milk
- 500 grams Granulated sugar (or any sugar except brown sugar or powdered sugar)
- 170 grams Cake flour
- 80 grams Corn starch
- 50 grams Butter
- 100 ml Rum
- 2 Whole eggs
- 6 Egg yolks
- 1 Vanila bean (or vanilla oil)
- Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and heat it in the milk to exactly 60C.
- (This is important, since if it's under 60C, the canneles will be sticky, and if it's over 60C, the canneles will rise too much!)
- Sift the flour and cornstarch together and add to the sugar.
- Mix in the beaten eggs and egg yolks.
- Stir in the melted butter and rum to the Step 2 mixture.
- (Do not beat.)
- Take out the vanilla bean and add the warm milk to the Step 3 mixture all at once.
- (If you add the warm milk a little at a time, instead of all at once, gluten will form and the canneles will be heavy.)
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 230C, and while it's heating, grease the cannele molds generously with butter.
- The dry ingredients will sink to the bottom of the batter, so stir it up well with a ladle before filling the molds about 9/10ths full.
- Bake at 230C on the upper rack of the oven for 20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 180C and bake for 40-60 minutes on the lower rack, or until they are nicely browned.
- *Our oven has four racks and the temperature can't be adjusted, so I baked them on the second rack at 230C, and moved them to the third rack and baked them at 180C.
- Leave the canneles in the molds after baking until they settle, then drop them out onto a rack to cool.
