Today we’re making the most delightful CREAM PUFFS—creamy, and absolutely irresistible. Follow this recipe step by step for perfect results every time!

Ingredients:

100 ml water
100 ml milk
100 g butter
1/3 tsp salt
1½ tsp sugar
150 g plain flour
3–4 medium eggs

Method:

In a saucepan, bring the water, butter, sugar, and salt to a gentle boil.

Add the flour all at once and stir vigorously over medium heat for 1–2 minutes, until the mixture comes together and forms a smooth dough that pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Transfer the dough to a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat for about 2 minutes to let it cool slightly.

While mixing, add the eggs one at a time (or in a thin stream), until the dough is smooth, glossy, and holds its shape.

Baking:

Preheat the oven to 190°C (fan 170°C).
Pipe the dough into éclairs or puffs on a lined baking tray.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until golden and crisp.
Do not open the oven door during baking, or the pastry may collapse.
