Makes enough for 3 dozen cream puffs

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs, plus 1 large egg white

Directions

Bring butter, sugar, salt, and 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat. Using a wooden spoon, quickly stir in flour. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture pulls away from sides and a film forms on bottom of pan, about 3 minutes.

Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until slightly cooled, about 1 minute. Raise speed to medium; add whole eggs, 1 at a time, until a soft peak forms when batter is touched with your finger. If peak does not form, lightly beat remaining egg white, and mix it into batter a little at a time until it does.

                Unfortunately the recipe lists 1 and 1/4 cups flour. In the video Martha states 1 cup of flour.  Ingredients should be listed correctly.

                Do you have any tips for this recipe at a higher altitude? I am having a hard time with them puffing up without the bottom being too crisp. I have tried lowering and raising the temp, but then they seem to fall.

                Great recipe, every time turns out perfect! I noticed people asking at what temperature to cook, it you actually pay attention to the eclair recipe, the cooking instructions are very well explained! :)

                If I remember correctly from the show Martha Bakes, you bake them for 20 minutes or so (or until they are light brown and have puffed up)

                For the temperature etc, you need to go to which ever recipe you want to make such as eclairs or profiteroles.  The directions for each one are there and very clear.  Just click on which one you wish to make.  I just saw the show on Hallmark and it looks very easy.  I have watched these made on several cooking shows and I think I will finally try it.  Thanks Martha !

                this recipe is not clear at last stage , from my experience , eggs is the important part which should add gradually particular the last one til its texture of dough is  soft and drop easily but can hold in shape on your tray

                I saw this on the Today show this morning and knew that they would be amazing, as all things Martha are.  So I had a girlfriend over and we whipped up a batch.  They were super simple and incredibly yummy.  My only question is can these be made ahead and stored in the fridge or freezer for a few days?
