Vanilla Eclairs Recipe

- Eclairs are a great French dessert, made from choux pastry, filled with cream and then topped usually with fondant icing. For topping there are many variations, but making a simple and quick chocolate ganache seemed just perfect for me. Eclairs are a true delight and worth all the effort involved.

Ingredients
Makes 10-12 eclairs
For the choux pastry
1 cup (125 g) flour
3.5 oz (100 ml) milk
3.5 oz (100 ml) water
2 tsp (10 g) sugar
1/2 tsp salt
5 1/2 tbsp (80g) unsalted butter
4 eggs
Vanilla Pastry Cream
2 cups (480 ml) milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup (70g) sugar
1/3 cup (40g) cornstarch
1 tbsp (15g) unsalted butter
Chocolate Glaze
7 oz (200 g) chocolate (55-70 cocoa), cut in smaller pieces
2/3 cup (155 ml) whipping cream
1. First prepare the pastry cream to have it ready by the time the eclairs are baked.
2. Whisk the egg yolks with sugar until slightly pale.
3. Incorporate the cornstarch. Pour the milk into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Pour about a third of the hot milk over the egg
yolks mixture. Pour the whole mixture into the saucepan over the milk. Bring to a boil while stirring and thickens. Keep enough over
heat to cook all the cornstarch. Add vanilla extract.
4. Pour the cream into a clean bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes then incorporate the butter while stirring. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pastry cream to prevent forming a skin on the surface. Set aside until ready to use.
5. Preheat oven to 350F (180C).
6. Prepare the choux pastry. Sift the flour. In a saucepan bring the milk, water, sugar, salt and butter to a boil.
7. Remove from heat and add flour all at once and incorporate mixing energetically with a wooden spoon until homogenous. Return the saucepan over low heat and while stirring cook for 1 minute or two to pull out the moisture from the batter and until it
pulls away from the sides of the pan. You will see some of the dough sticks to the bottom of the pan.
8. Transfer batter to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly. Add the eggs one at a time, carefully incorporating each into the
butter using the wooden spoon or even a stand mixer. It will result in a smooth, homogenous batter which still holds it’s shape.
9. Fit a pastry bag with a large ½ inch (1 cm) round or star tip and pipe the dough into 4 or 5 inch (10 -12 cm) long strips on a
parchment paper lined baking sheet.
10. Dust with powder sugar and bake for about 40 minutes. After the first 10 minutes, open the oven door slightly, about 1/8 inch (2
-3 mm), to let the steam escape. Bake for the rest of 30 minutes with the oven door slightly ajar, until golden. (Use a wooden spoon
to keep the oven door ajar)
11. Remove eclairs from the oven, prick each with a skewer to release steam and allow to cool on a wire rack. Poke 3 holes in the base of each eclair using a 1/4 inch (5-6mm) plain or star tip.
12. Remove pastry cream from refrigerator and whisk until smooth. Transfer the pastry cream into a piping bag fitted with 1/4 inch (5-6 mm) plain or star tip.
13. Fill the cooled eclairs by piping cream into the holes.
14. Prepare the chocolate ganache. In a small saucepan, place cream over medium-low heat for a few minutes to get hot. No boiling or simmering needed. Remove from heat, pour over chopped chocolate and let rest for 1-2 minutes. Stir until dissolved.
15. Dip the tops of the eclairs into the chocolate and allow to set. You won’t need all the chocolate but needs to be more to be able
to dip them well.
16. Eclairs are best eaten the day they are made but they keep quite well in the refrigerator overnight.

Recipes like this are the reason I finally broke down and bought a food scale to weigh dry ingredients for my baking, instead of measuring by cups or spoons. The accuracy really is the secret to success :)
Absolutely!! In baking accuracy of measurements Are the Key to success!! This baking NOT Cooking!!🙄🙄🙄
For everyone who wants to know the name of the first song it's
Jour De L'Amour by Christian Marsac
thankyou very match
i just thinking hemmm what the name this song,now i just reading your coment thanks a lot 😊👍
Thank you so much, im looking for it :)
Gracias! Thank you! :)
Thank you!
Greetings from a fellow baker! I am amazed how painstakingly you have explained and taught the product. Many people should be indebted to you. God bless you.
I don't know why so many people are afraid of making these. Its a lot of work but its all very simple but the payoff is just impressive in almost everyone's eyes.
is it only me who watched it 129032 times but never made it?
+Rainbow Rose hehe:) hope you will have the chance to try it some day:)
Did it last weekend. You have to try!!!!
+Rainbow Rose
Same here. These are hubby's favorites. As soon as all the Christmas goodies have been gobbled up I'll make these (I hope). Now that I've committed
myself on paper, I might be obligated to follow through :)
Rainbow Rose 😅😅😅😂

thanks for giving european units of measure
+Katarina L you're very welcome:) hope you will try them out
Home Cooking Adventure can I just coat them with melted dark chocolate.. without whipping cream
Hayat Abdalla yup.. But it won't be the creamy consistency it will just set
I swear i was watching and say thanks for that
I wouldn't call them European units since most of the world uses metric outside of Canada and the US.
I made these yesterday and they turned out amazing! It was the first time I made eclairs. Thank you for your recipes! Everything I tried from your channel was good!
People who write the whole recipe in description box instead of giving link to their "websites" are my favorite people. Bless you guys, bless you!!
This whole video is a work of art - the presentation, your craftiness and the music! Just beautiful!
Whenever i want to hear these songs with eclairs baking, i always come back to this channel. The eclairs just fit with these songs ;)
Saw this video the first time at 4 pm , now it's 10pm and holy moly they are sooooo goooood .
Best eclair/ puff pastry recipe ever!!!This recipe does not disappoint. I always have the crispy outter shell with the hallow center. No deflation, no need to poke extra holes to release the moisture, it holds it shape when cooled. Much love to you.
Thank so much for sharing this recipe. PS I have tried several others before I came across your channel.
Everything about this video was sooo relaxing the song the music your recipe that was really amazing thank you 😍😍
Love the high quality videos, the style, your baking skills, and your eclectic taste in music! My only complaint? There aren't enough of these videos to keep me happy! Please don't stop anytime soon! Thanks again!
I made these today. First time ever making eclairs... Turned out amazing
I'd like to ask how many eclairs come out of this recipe?
@@mariakaragianni863 they make 10-12 eclairs
Don't lie
Best cooking channel ever! The music and food...incredible!
I can barely watch the "talking" cooking shows now.
This is all about the food! Nice!
Your videos are an art to watch, good job :)

Home Cooking Adventure fan oven or no fan???
I love this channel, there is not too much talking just watch and read and thats what i like , everything loooks perfect . Thanks for the video
First time ever i try a youtube recipe and it works first try without me having to adjust the ingredients. The dough turned out a bit over cooked but it's delicious overall. I loved it. The video quality is perfect and everything is clear and right to the point without unnecessary chit chat. Thank you so much.
i like your all recipe videos, no talking. quick video, nice music.....
+N. sem happy to hear that

@@yumo1757 Jour de L'Amour by christian marsac
you deserve to have all the subscribers you have. you have gone thru sooooo much effort into everything. thank you
You have the BEST and most helpful channel. Thank you.
Next time please make the holes on top to fill the filling and then cover eclairs and holes with the chocolate. This way eclairs won't create any mess when you bite into them.
+jw That's a very good tip :)
they are supposed to be eaten in a plate probably that's why
I guess it's just a common sense. :)
jw that is what i have been doing all my life xD
i never made them before but i thought the exact same thing
The cinematics. The music. I am just watching these videos for pleasure purposes. I'm in love with your videos.
I’ve been making this eclairs since the video came out, and I came today to make some and I realized it’s been 6 years. It’s just perfect.
Ive seen a couple other make these but I must say yours so far is the best I've seen and your custard I'm speechless it looks just right .
OMG. this was an amazing recipe. I enjoyed it very much. highly recommend.
thank you for showing it to us
Hi.. I tried this recipe and the result was awesome..
Thanks :)
dont lie me jajajajajja
I learned that do not pipe down the choux if it is runny, you will just waste your effort, better chill it first to firm up the mix
What size eggs did you use?
I'm wondering if i can make these a day ahead?
this recipe is amazing! I just made it today, and everybody loves it. Thankyou!❤️
As a baker i can tell u that i tried so many times to make the perfect eclairs, thank you so much!
Thanx for the successful recipe, i made them and was delicious that i will make them again now

Thank you so much for my first excellent eclairs! ❤❤❤
Wow, what a fabulous recipe! An elegant dessert made easy. Thanks.
I tried this and like it said in the video it’s with the effort. I tried this 2 times, first I let the oven door open and it didn’t rise, it was just flat. The next time I did I left it closed and it was perfect and hollow. Would definitely recommend
Having the same problem
There's love in every bite

my best channel in 2017 u r such a great discovery i learned a lot from u thanx a lot

I tried it, finally! I also messed a couple of things up, as you'd expect. Most important is the batter. I think it wasn't dried enough when I piped it on the paper. It couldn't hold its shape very well, and ended up rather flat. It had some space in some of the rolls, but most of them were too flat and I had to use a butter knife from the end to try and force them to hollow. Piping the filling in helped puff them up, but it couldn't fix it.
I also, somehow, messed up the chocolate glaze. No idea how, but the chocolate didn't dissolve completely, and instead had this gritty look to it no matter how much I mixed. I even tried microrwaving the mix afterwards to force it to melt, but that didn't help. Next time I'm going to try melting the chocolate a little before combining it with the cream.
That being said, the cooked batter was great, and combining it with the filling made it taste amazing. Seeing how I couldn't find proper eclairs around here, it's good that I know this recipe tastes right. I'll be making it again for sure.
If you use a mixer, you know theres enough eggs in the pate choux when the batter pulls creating ribbons. You can also do the finger test by taking a bit of the batter and smushing it between 2 fingers to see if you get that stringy effect. Elevation from sea level of where you are baking affects the moisture content of your baking IIRC my old baking theory classes.
Your chocolate, I have a feeling some water got into it. Water lumps up chocolate when you try melting it. Its a common mistake that can't be fixed if a lot got in. Otherwise use a bit of butter or oil to help salvage it.
@@HeadlessChickenTO I'm actually coming around to do this again (took me only two years). I'm better at cooking now, and I will try this again out of pure craving. I will be more careful with the chocolate for sure. The tip about testing the batter is great! I'll use that for sure. Thanks!
What do you use to edit?? the editing is beautiful.

Bonjour 👋 the dessert is Tested and approved ! Thank you for the receipt

so easy to do. look so good.
I’m just finish backing mine and the result is amazing 😉 thanks
My first attempt and I had only messed up the shells, hehe :))
Fingers crossed for next time.
+Iulia Blaga hehe.. hope they will turn right the next time
I am going to make these !! I would make the holes on top to fill with filling then cover with the chocolate. YUMMY !!!!!
+Julie Armstrong I was thinking the same thing about holes. Seems to me that if they are on the bottom it's little too messy. Makes perfect sense to make holes on top and then cover them with chocolate. P.S. I've never seen store/bakery bought eclairs with holes on the bottom.
Your videos are so satisfying , good and I’m sure I will try it
C'est vraiment appétissant j'adore sérieux
I made this recipe based on your video and it turned out awesome! Only thing I did slightly different is I put the dough in the fridge for about 10 minutes, since I live in a tropical country, and was afraid it would just melt in the oven.
I wanted to ask you about the filling. Mine was good, but it smelled and tasted a bit too much of eggs. Do you have any tricks to prevent this?
The music is perfect! who knows the names of the songs? Merci :)
The results were more than just perfect
n easy to make ......... i have gone 100 times to web to find it but at last i found the best recipe that is urs!!!!!!!!
