Ingredients:

For the cream puffs:

Vanilla whipped cream:

  • 600 ml milk or plant-based drink
  • 120 g vanilla pudding powder
  • 8 tbsp sugar
  • 3 eggs, size “M”
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 500 ml heavy cream or dairy-free heavy cream

Preparation:

  • Measure water, margarine and a pinch of salt into a saucepan and heat it until the margarine melts completely.
  • Remove the saucepan from the stove, add the flour mixture and stir until there are no lumps.
  • Place it back to the stove and heat it until the dough becomes a ball, that’s about 30-60 seconds.
  • Set the dough aside and wait a bit till it cools down a bit.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each egg until foamy. It is important for it to have a creamy texture, but does not spread. Adjust the number of eggs accordingly.
  • Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
  • Transfer the dough to a pastry bag and pipe fat dots onto a lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes. Let it cool down in the oven until lukewarm.
  • For the vanilla whipped cream: mix the egg yolks, the vanilla pudding powder and sugar with the milk or plant-based drink until lumpfree and cook a thick pastry cream, then add the vanilla paste. Beat the egg whites into a stiff peak and stir into the hot pastry cream, then cool it down. Whip the heavy cream with the pastry cream until foamy.
  • Spoon the cream into a piping bag with a 5mm plain nozzle. Push nozzle into base of each profiterole and fill with the cream.

Enjoy!
