French onion cheese puffs

French Onion Cheese Puffs are a delightful and savory treat that make a perfect appetizer or snack. These puffs are light and airy, with a rich blend of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, making them irresistible. Follow this simple recipe to create delicious cheese puffs that will impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter
70g
1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
3 eggs
150g
1/3 cup mozzarella cheese
33g
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
27g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Allow it to cook until it starts to sizzle and bubble.
3. Add Flour: Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add all the flour to the saucepan at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a smooth dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
4. Cool Down: Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the dough to cool down for about 5 minutes.
5. Incorporate Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time to the dough, beating well with the wooden spoon after each addition until fully incorporated. The dough should be smooth and slightly glossy.
6. Add Cheese: Stir in the mozzarella cheese and the grated parmesan cheese until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Shape the Dough: Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, drop small mounds of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Each mound should be roughly the size of a golf ball.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese puffs are golden brown and puffed.
9. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the cheese puffs from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips:

- Ensure your butter is fully melted and well combined with the flour to create a smooth dough.

- Let the dough cool slightly before adding the eggs to prevent them from cooking prematurely.

- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of salt, pepper, or garlic powder to the dough.

- Bake until the puffs are evenly golden brown for the perfect texture.

And there you have it! Golden, cheesy, and utterly delightful French Onion Cheese Puffs. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven for the best experience. Whether you're hosting a party or just craving a savory snack, these cheese puffs are sure to be a hit.
