Servings: 24 small cream puffs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.
- In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, pour in oil and quickly stir in flour and salt. The mixture will immediately become smooth and pull away from the sides of the saucepan.
- Add eggs one at a time to the flour mixture in the saucepan. Beat mixture with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Spoon mounds of about 2 Tbsp (30 mL) batter on baking sheets, approximately 12 mounds per sheet.
- Bake in the oven on the centre rack for 12 to 15 minutes, until cream puffs are puffed, golden and slightly dry on top. Remove from oven; with a knife, make a small slit in the top of each puff to release steam and keep exterior crisp. Cool.
- Can be stored in a sealed container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F (180°C) oven for 5 minutes to revive crispy exterior.
