Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium saucepan, bring the water, butter, and salt to a boil over medium heat. Stir until the butter is completely melted.
-
Reduce the heat to low and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a smooth ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The dough may look like it's separating at first, but keep stirring until it comes together into a smooth, shiny batter.
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Using a spoon or a piping bag, drop small portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them as they will puff up as they bake.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the pastries are puffed up and golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and transfer the pastries to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once cooled, dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
