Ингредиенты

Flour - 1 cup (150 g)

Water - 1 cup (250 g)

Butter - 100 g

Eggs - 4-5 pcs. (depending on size)

Salt - 1 pinch

Рецепт

1. Pour water into a saucepan, add butter and salt. Heat to a boil, stir, melt the butter.

2. Then pour in the flour, stirring thoroughly to avoid lumps.

3. Heat for 3 minutes and remove from heat. After this, cool the choux pastry slightly, to about 70 degrees.

4. Add eggs one at a time, kneading the dough well each time until smooth.

5. The finished choux pastry should be moderately thick and viscous.

6. Preheat the oven. Place the dough in a pastry bag with a nozzle (or in a cone-shaped bag made of thick paper with a hole at the end). Place the dough on a baking sheet in the form of small elongated cakes.

7. Bake the eclairs in an oven preheated to 180-200 degrees for about 30-35 minutes. Do not open the oven during baking. Choux pastry should be dry, light, golden in color, with an empty center. Eclairs can be filled with cream (choux, butter, etc.) or whipped cream with sugar, or fruit jam. The cakes can be topped with chocolate glaze, covered with sugar fondant, or simply sprinkled with powdered sugar.
