Cannelés. A canelé (French: ) is a small French pastry flavored with rum and vanilla with a soft and tender custard center and a dark, thick caramelized crust. It takes the shape of a small, striated cylinder up to five centimeters in height with a depression at the top. A specialty of the Bordeaux region of France, today it is widely available in pâtisseries in France and abroad.

The cannelés will rise in their molds like a soufflé before collapsing back into their molds, so be sure there is a pan below to catch the excess butter that will drip out. You might have to take the cannelés out to slightly cool if they rise too high over the top. Cannelés are golden and crispy cakes with a custardy centre, flavoured with a hint of rum and/or vanilla. You can have Cannelés using 9 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Des minis cannelés bordelais une délicieuse gourmandise en petit format qui a fait l'unanimité auprès de mes amis lorsque je les ai présentés en fin de repas accompagnés d'autres mignardises. Place flour, sugar, egg yolks, rum, vanilla extract, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix and smear into a smooth paste using a spatula. Continue mixing until flour is fully incorporated. These French pastries are the real deal: crunchy and caramelized to a deep mahogany brown on the outside, moist and custardy within, and deeply perfumed with dark rum and vanilla bean.
