Ingredients
Crème Pâtissière (Filling) (Adapted from The Little Teochew)
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup (60g) caster sugar
- 2 tablespoons (20g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200ml) milk
- 1 tablespoon (14g) butter for additional shine and firmness
Instructions
Crème Pâtissière (Filling)
- Whisk egg yolks and sugar in a saucepan. Sift the all-purpose flour into the egg mixture, and mix well.
- Pour the warm milk into the egg mixture, whisking consistently until well incorporated.
- Whisk the mixture over medium heat until it thickens and firm up. Remove the heat and whisk in butter.
- Transfer the creme to a bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until ready to use. Transfer the creme into a piping bag before assembling.
- To make the cream puffs, cut the puff half horizontally. Pipe the creme on the bottom part of the puff and cover it with the top part. Serve the cream puff with powdered sugar dusting on top.
Notes
- Let your eggs sit at room temperature before using them. This helps them mix in better and makes your cream puffs lighter.
- Make sure to let the dough cool a bit before adding the eggs. This prevents them from cooking and keeps the mixture nice and smooth.
- Try not to open the oven door while they’re baking, especially in the first 10-15 minutes, or your cream puffs might deflate.
- Let the Japanese cream puffs cool completely before filling them. This keeps them light and crispy instead of soggy.
