Ingredients

  • 2 egg yolks, whisked
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 Tbsp butter (1/2 Tbsp butter will work too)
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp raw honey
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp molasses (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp raw honey

Instructions

  • Butter your baking pan.
  • Cook or heat milk with butter to melt, just below boil.
  • Add flour, honey, salt, and whisked egg yolks to a bowl. Combine with a spoon. (An easy way is to whisk the eggs first in the bowl, switch to a spoon, and then add the flour and other ingredients.)
  • Pour heated milk-butter over the flour-egg bowl while stirring with a silverware spoon (recommended) constantly to prevent eggs from scrambling. You can pour a little of the hot milk at a time in the beginning, mix/stir a liitle, if you can't stir with one hand and pour constantly with the other hand.
  • Refrigerate batter for a few hours or overnight, for better bake rise results. You can also bake after you make the batter if you want. The taste will stay about the same.
  • Pour batter into baking pan at 450°F for 15 minutes in a regular oven. Then turn the oven down to 350°F for at least 45 minutes or until color desired. Caneles are dark color.
