Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cubed
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1¼ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 5 large eggs plus 1 additional egg if needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a saucepan, melt the butter with the milk, salt, and sugar over medium heat.
- Once boiling, remove from heat and quickly stir in the flour until a dough forms.
- Return to low heat, stirring continuously for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture pulls away from the sides.
- Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until smooth and glossy.
- If the mixture is too thick, add the additional egg for desired consistency.
- Spoon or pipe the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced apart.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and puffed, without opening the oven door during baking.
Notes
Ensure that the dough is smooth before adding eggs for best results.
Use a baking mat or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Allow the pastries to cool completely before filling with cream or custard.
