      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

    Custard

  1. Make 1lt TM5 Automated Custard. Thick and creamy. Refrigerate while you make pastry. 

    2. Pastry

  2. Preheat oven to 200c

     

  3. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper

  4. Add Butter and Water to bowl, cook for 3.5 minutes /100 degrees/speed 1

  5. Add Flour and Baking powder. Cook 1 min/80 degrees/Speed 4

  6. Mix for further 2 mins /speed 4 no heat

  7. Spread mixture up sides of bowl and allow to cool with lid off for 5 minutes. 

  8. Push mixture back down with spatula and mix for 60 seconds/speed 5 adding one egg at a time thrugh opening.

  9. Pipe into either small rounds, or longer mounds for eclairs. 

  10. Place in over for 20 minutes.

    12. Filling

  12. Add pre prepared custad to piping bag.

  13. Peirce hole in profiterole with piping tip and pipe custard in until its full. I find peircing on top is easiest to then disguise with chocolate.

  14. Melt chocolate in microwave for 45 sec to a minute. 

  15. Once rolls are filled, invert, and dip in melted chocolate.

    Just made these for the first time, turned out awesome.
    next time I’ll pipe them a bit bigger as I thought they’d double in size but they didn’t really.

    Absolutely amazing recipe! I've made them a couple of times and they are just perfect.

    Definately need to flatten the tips with a wet finger to avoid burning and I leave them in the oven overnight to dry through.

    Pipe with a piping gun as the custard is thick.

    I also usually get about 50 out of a batch.

  • Had no problems at all

    Submitted by AGD1978 on 21. August 2016 - 20:48.

    Had no problems at all following this recipe! Although i'd recommend adding a step to press down on the piped profiteroles with a wet finger before putting them in the oven.

    These work very well with a quality chocolate and a vanilla or choc custard, can be a little bland otherwise.

    Thank you.

  • Loved this recipe, I need to

    Submitted by Cass.hinchcliffe on 7. August 2016 - 15:18.

    Loved this recipe, I need to work on custard consistency - it was very thick for piping but I may have left it in the fridge too long. Everyone in the family enjoyed these profiteroles, thank you!

  • Easy, but I would say takes

    Submitted by amyk11 on 12. April 2016 - 14:31.

    Easy, but I would say takes longer than said

    it takes a bit of time fiddling and I definitely need to have more practice to improve the look of them. Although I learnt a bit for next time
