Strawberry Eclair Recipe

We’re obsessed with these Strawberry eclairs🍓
Ingredients:
- 225ml milk
- 115g butter
- 142g all-purpose flour
- 4 eggs
- A pinch of salt
Method:
1. Put your cubed butter, salt and milk into a large saucepan and heat gently until the butter has melted. Once melted, bring the mixture briefly to the boil. Remove the pan from the heat as soon as it starts to boil and then add the flour.
2. Beat the mixture with a wooden spoon until it thickens and you can form a smooth ball of dough, leaving the sides of the pan clean. Transfer into a cool bowl and allow to cool for a couple of minutes, then add beaten eggs one at a time, beating them into the dough vigorously. Stop adding egg if the mixture starts to loosen, but otherwise carry on adding until your dough forms a stiff, glossy paste.
4. Pipe or spoon your mixture into moulds to make puffs, buns, profiteroles or eclairs, then place in a hot oven (about 200°C) as quickly as possible.
5. After removing from the oven, transfer your crisp, golden pastries to a cooling rack and split one side of each open, allowing steam to escape to prevent the pastry becoming soggy. Cool on a wire rack and only add your cream or chosen filling once fully cooled.
6. When they are all filled, make the icing by combining 200g icing sugar with a little water until you have a stiff consistency. Add your red food colouring to make your desired colour. Dip your eclairs into the icing to cover and leave to set. Decorate to look like strawberries!
