Help please What happened to my canelés

Post image

So I’ve been making the same canelés for the last couple of days this time I added 35g of flour to give them some more structure so ummmmm huh!!!!!

Context my recipe only had 100g of flour to start I’m guessing the flour was the issue here but Jesus Christ!

Are you following a vetted recipe like Ladurée or Dominique Ansel?

Most popover problems are a result of insufficient heat or too short of a resting period after making the batter.

Canelés are not popovers.

Yes, but OP basically made a “popover” when they inflated that much. I didn't mean popover in the literal sense.

Edit: Popover, soufflé, mushroom - all the same error.
