How to make custard eclairs? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Sieve the flour beforehand. Cream milk can be any fat. But choose butter 82%. It should be fresh and tasty.

To make eclair dough, combine water and butter. Put on a heat, bring to a boil and boil for a couple of minutes to completely melt the oil and mix with the water.

Pour flour into the boiling mass and quickly mix everything together. The flour will begin to brew and gather in a lump.

For a minute, stir a custard lump of dough over the heat. Then remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool until warm. Stir to make the dough cool faster.

At this time, you can start making cream. Combine the milk with the sugar and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar.

In a separate bowl, mix the eggs with the flour and vanillin. Pour in some milk from the total.

Mix everything with a mixer so that there are no lumps of flour left. Interfering, pour hot milk into the egg mixture.

Then pour everything back into the pan and return to the heat. With constant stirring, bring the cream to a boil. At the same time, it will become thicker.

Add the butter to the hot cream. It will begin to melt. Stir the oil into the cream.

You can use a mixer to mix. The finished cream is thick and uniform. Cover it with a lid and leave to cool.

The eclair dough has cooled to a warm state. One at a time, we add eggs to it and carefully intervene them in the dough. If the eggs are small, then they may need 1-2 more. See the consistency of the dough.

Eclair dough turns out like a thick cream. It drains a little from the spoon, but does not spread on the surface.

Using a clove head, deposit the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment or Teflon mat. Bake the eclairs in an oven preheated to 180 degrees, 20-25 minutes. Navigate your oven. During baking, do not open the door, otherwise the eclairs will fall.

Eclairs increased in size and became golden in color. Pull them out of the oven and cool them.

Make a cut on the side and fill the eclairs with prepared cream.

Custard eclairs are ready! I got exactly 31 eclairs with stuffing. And there is not a drop of extra cream left. Ready-made eclairs can be sprinkled with icing sugar or decorated with melted chocolate. Nice treat!
