TOMIZAWA Canele Mix (200g)

A mix for making canelé, the classic French pastry with a crisp caramelised exterior and a soft, chewy centre. No resting time for the batter is required, making it easy to prepare at home.

Instructions

Makes 6 canelé (5.5 cm moulds)

Preparation time: about 60 minutes

Ingredients

Mix 200g

Unsalted butter or unsalted margarine 15g

Milk 250mL

Tools

Mixing bowl, plastic wrap, microwave, whisk, spatula, canelé moulds, oven

Instructions

1. Place butter and milk in a bowl, cover loosely with plastic wrap and heat in the microwave (600 W for about 1 minute 30 seconds).

2. Place a baking tray in the oven and preheat to 200°C.

(Preheating the tray helps achieve a better caramelised colour.)

3. Add the mix to the warmed milk mixture and whisk well until smooth.

4. Grease the moulds with butter (not included in the ingredients). Pour the batter into the moulds until about 90% full.

5. Bake in the 200°C preheated oven for about 45 minutes until deeply browned. Remove from the moulds and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Baking time and temperature may vary depending on the oven.
