Homemade cream puffs and éclairs. Very easy and delicious homemade dessert is baked in a convection oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup(250 ml) water
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted margarine

  • 1/4 cup (60 g) cornstarch
  • 3 large eggs

Preheat the oven to 400ºF(190ºC). Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

In a medium saucepan,bring 1 cup of water and margarine to a boil,uncovered,over medium-high heat-about 1 minute.

Step 5

Remove from the heat and let cool for 2 minutes,then add the eggs,one at a time,beating well after each addition,until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Step 6

Step 7

To shape eclairs,shape the dough into narrow rectangles about 3½-inches(9 cm) long.

Step 8

Bake the puffs or eclairs in preheated oven for 10 minutes,then reduce heat to 350ºF(180ºC) and bake for additional 25 minutes or until the puffs are firm.

Transfer homemade cream puffs and eclairs to wire racks and coll -about 1 hour.

Step 10
