Profiteroles in the making 🍫 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ingredients Choux pastry 125 ml milk 200 ml water 150 g plain flour or bread flour 1 teaspoon golden caster sugar 0.5 teaspoon salt 100 g unsalted butter 3 eggs depending on the size (normal size) (2 1/2 eggs for large eggs) 50-60g icing Chocolate ganache 180g milk chocolate 90g thickened cream ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Method: Preheat oven to 180C fan force or 200C gas Step 1 - In a medium pot or pan, heat the water, Milk salt, and butter over medium heat. When the butter has fully melted and the edges start to bubble. Step 2 -(off the heat) add all of the flour at once. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together (it will begin to leave a film of paste along the bottom of the pan), put back on heat for about 2 minutes over medium heat. Step 3 - Transfer the pasty mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or to a medium bowl if using a hand mixer). Mix on medium speed until the paste is no longer releasing steam, 3 to 5 minutes. Step 4 - Crack the eggs into a small bowl and break apart using a fork. Add the eggs a tablespoon or 2 at a time to the paste and mix until fully incorporated. Continue adding the eggs a tablespoon or 2 at a time, until the dough is thick and glossy. (Depending on the weather and how much the paste has been cooked, you may need more or less egg.) Step 5 - Spoon the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip. Pipe onto prepared baking sheets into mounds 1½” wide by 1” tall and 2” apart from one another. Using a wet finger, tap down to level out the peaks. Then sift icing sugar on top before baking. Step 6 - Bake until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. (Underbaked dough will look great coming out of the oven, but then collapse as it cools. Make sure that the puffs are uniformly golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.) Let cool toll you fill your delicious puffs with what ever your heart desires. #happybaking ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #eclair #pateachoux #eclairs #profiteroles #easyrecipe #pastryrecipe #baker #homemadefood #homemadedessert #desserttable #chouxpastry #dessert #pastrychef #pastylove #chocolate #sydneybaker ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
