Ingredients

– 1 stick (4 oz. or 113 g) unsalted butter – 1 cup water – 1/4 teaspoon salt – 4 eggs or 1 cup eggs – 1 cup all-purpose flour

Step 1

Put the butter and and water into a saucepan on low heat.

Step 2

Add in the flour and salt, turn heat to simmer. Stir quickly until a dough is formed and does not stick to the saucepan. Let cook for about 1-2 minutes to dry up the water a little bit.

Step 3

Transfer the dough to a big bowl and leave to cool for about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time using an electronic mixer (low speed) until the mixture is well combined and sticky.

Step 4

How to Pipe Choux Pastry? Using a plastic bag with one of its bottom corners cut off (cut a small opening), scoop the dough into the plastic bag and push it to the part where the corner is snipped off. You can also use a piping bag.

Step 5

Squeeze and pipe the dough onto a greased baking sheet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. When pipping the dough, use a clock-wise motion to form a small coil shape. Leave enough rooms in between each pastry.

Step 6

Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 10 minute, and then at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Remove from oven and serve warm.
