Directions: |
Directions:1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a regular size muffin pan with oil, on the inside and on the rim.
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the milk and bring to a low boil.
3. Add the flour all at once and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon, keeping the saucepan on low heat, until the dough comes together in a ball that stays together.
4. Cool for 5 minutes.
5. Add the eggs, one at a time, using a wooden spoon, until each egg is evenly mixed in. At first, the dough will separate into chunks, but then will become smooth.
6. Divide the dough evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle each puff with sugar.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until puffy and golden brown.
8. Serve with a drizzle of honey. Makes 12. |

Personal
Notes: These are a light, airy pastry that's crisp on the outside and soft and crepe-like on the inside, like a cross between a popover and a Dutch baby. They definitely have a distinct eggy flavor, so if you're not a fan, this recipe may not be for you. I cut the recipe in half and topped them with a cinnamon/sugar mix before baking.
