    Please note. When Choux pastry is removed from the oven, pierce the top of each with the tip of sharp knife or a bamboo skewer, to allow steam to escape. If you omit this step, the interior will be soggy. Make sure you allow them to cool completely before filling.

      nonsense, i was french trained and this tip is rubbish, they way they cool is the way they are supposed to be.
      they are supposed to moist in the middle, try learning the proper french way before thinking you know better, you know diddly squat.

    I was really scared to make these because I'm not a very good at baking BUT GUYS they were sooo good. I put custard in them and oml *chefs kiss* delicious. Definitely try this recipe if youre hesitating, I ended up using 2 and a half eggs instead of 3 and had to cook mine longer because my oven is trash. 10/10 would make again.

    Hi there
    Thank you for the video! A comprehensive tutorial with troubleshoots....
    A month ago I made around 60 Pcs of Eclaires and were good.
    However, my enquiry is about the time of baking and the quality!
    1- The color was great, golden toasted, not very dry, but golden brown.
    2- Some of the trays I baked, the Eclaires collapsed and did not hold their shapes. Although I had them in the oven for around 40 minutes. But when I took them out and opened them, after they were cooled off, many of them were hollow and have like "trimmings" inside. You can say they were like 75% holloed!
    3- When I opened them to fill them up with Creme Patissiere, they were not hollowed in spite of the long baking time!
    My goal is to make an Eclaires that is 100% PUFFED and airy from inside!
    I will try your recipe for next time and I will see the results.
    Any suggestions?
    Mille Merci.

    • @FrenchCookingAcademy

      +kinn grimm Thanks for the comment kinn. for eclairs the most important is the filling and the icing which can be a pain to get in the shop when you are not a restaurant. as a quick tip you add melted chocolate or chocolate syrup in your pastry cream to make chocolate eclairs. it's "delicieux"

    Excellent recipe! My piping tip was a bit small, but they still came out lovely. I turned up the temperature slightly (410 F) to get more color on them at the start. They didn't collapse! Now on to making the cream for the inside. Thank you!
