A classic French pastry from the Bordeaux region of France. The batter needs to be chilled ideally for 24 hours but can be chilled for 1 hour. Baked at a high heat in a fluted Canelé mould, it produces a crispy golden shell with a soft centre. User generated recipes have not been re-tested by Kenwood.
