Nun’s Puffs (French Choux-Style Muffins)

Airy, buttery, and lightly crisp—these puffs are a simple old-fashioned treat that’s magic with honey or sugar.

Ingredients

Scale

½ cup butter

1 cup milk

¾ cup all-purpose flour

4 large eggs

Honey or sugar (for topping)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin pan well.

In a saucepan, melt butter with milk over medium heat.

Remove from heat, stir in flour until smooth. Let cool slightly.

Beat in eggs one at a time until glossy and fully combined.

Spoon into muffin cups (about ¾ full).

Bake for 30 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.

Serve warm topped with honey or a dusting of sugar.
