In a saucepan, heat milk with vanilla bean split lengthwise, stirring occasionally until it reaches a simmer, then remove from heat and let steep for 15 minutes
Strain the milk through a fine sieve to remove vanilla bean pieces and return to saucepan
In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and whole egg with sugar until pale and creamy, about 3 minutes
Gradually pour the warm milk into the egg mixture while whisking constantly to prevent curdling
Stir in rum and melted butter until fully incorporated, then pass through a fine sieve for smooth batter
Brush canelé molds with beeswax coating, fill three-quarters full with batter, and place on baking sheet
Bake at 200°C for 50-60 minutes until the exterior is deeply caramelized and crispy while the interior remains tender
Cool in molds for 5 minutes, then carefully remove and serve warm or at room temperature
