Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Rye flour
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, water, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the butter melts and the mixture comes to a rolling boil.
Reduce the heat to low and add the rye flour and all-purpose flour to the saucepan all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together into a smooth ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Using a hand mixer or a wooden spoon, beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. The mixture should become smooth, glossy, and slightly sticky.
If using, stir in the caraway seeds for extra flavor.
Using a piping bag or two spoons, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and feel light.
Turn off the oven, crack the door open slightly, and let the puffs sit in the oven for 5 minutes to ensure they stay crisp.
Remove the puffs from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
