Ingredients:
For Éclairs
125ml Water
125ml Milk
125gms Butter
12gms Caster Sugar
165gms All-purpose Flour
5 Eggs
2gms Salt
Directions
For Éclairs
Heat water, milk, butter, and sugar together and boil.
Take the pan off the heat and add the sifted flour and salt.
Use a spatula to stir until thoroughly combined.
Return the pan to the hob, reduce the heat to low, and continue stirring with a spatula until the dough leaves the sides of the pan.
Take off the heat; transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and leave to cool for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Gradually add the beaten eggs to the dough.
Beat with a spatula until the mixture is smooth. The consistency should be neither too soft nor too hard; it should drop off the spoon, leaving a smooth ‘V’ shape.
Pipe into shape and bake at 400°F for 12-15 minutes, then reduce the temperature and let them dry at 350°F.
