Savoury puffs

33.31g carbohydrates per 100g of puffs

Ingredients for the choux pastry

• 150g water
• 120g gluten-free flour mix for bread, brand BiAglut**
• 80g softened butter
• 10g sugar
• 3 eggs
• a pinch of salt

** Ingredients specific for celiacs

Preparation

1. Pour water, butter, salt and sugar in a saucepan and cook for 5 minutes, stirring with a whisk.
   Add the flour while continuing to stir, so that no lumps form, until the mixture has completely come off the saucepan sides.
2. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool for 10 minutes. Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well with the whisk: it is important that each egg is completely incorporated before adding the next one.
3. Fill a pastry bag or pouch with the dough and cut off a corner.
   On a lined baking tray, form walnut-sized balls, trying to maintain a distance of a few centimetres between each ball.
4. Bake in a static oven preheated to 200°C for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 190°C and continue baking for another 10 minutes. Turn the oven off, open the door slightly to let the steam out and let the puffs dry for about 10 minutes.
