Chef Jason Roberts teaches you the iconic Armagnac Cannelés recipe. 

If you don’t have Cannelé moulds you could use a small muffin tin or dariole mould.

What you will need:
– 3 vanilla beans split
– 750 mls cold milk
– 200 gm of white sugar
– 150 gm plain flour
– 75 gm of butter
– 3 eggs large
– 3 egg yolks
– 3rd cup of armagnac @armagnacsdarroze
– 50 gm beeswax
– 80 gm butter

Split the vanilla beans lengthways, and scrape the seeds from them using a small knife. Place the vanilla seeds, vanilla pods and milk in a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Turn off heat and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, add sugar, eggs and egg yolks along with melted butter and whisk until combined.
Remove the pods from the milk and strain quarter of the hot milk into the egg mixture and mix well. Add flour and continue mixing until combined. Then slowly add the remaining hot milk, mixing Well till all ingredients are well combined.
Add armagnac and give another mix, avoiding any potential lumps giving you a very smooth velvety batter.
Refrigerate the batter for a minimum of 24 hours, 48 hrs is the amount of time I like to rest for, as the texture and flavour improves tenfold.
Each time you use the batter, stir well, mixing for a good 1 to 2 minutes to improve gluten structure.
Melt the butter and the beeswax together, quickly poor the wax mixture into the canele mould and then invert allowing for any access wax to run out, Repeat with remaining mould.
Pre-heat oven to 270°C/550°F fill the moles with butter to 4/5 full. Place onto it lined baking sheet and bake the canele at 270°C for 10 minutes without opening the oven, drop the temperature to 190C/ 375°F and continue baking for another 45 minutes.
Remove Cannelé from the oven .
Immediately remove canele from their moulds.
Cool on a wire rack for a couple of hours before eating
