These little puffs are light and airy, and wonderful as an hors d'oeuvre, or as an accompaniment to a soup, stew, or salad.

Ingredients
  1. 1 cup water
  2. ½ cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
  3. ¼ teaspoon salt
  4. 1 tablespoon Bread Dipping Seasoning*
  5. 1 cup (4 ¼ ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
  6. 4 large eggs
  7. ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional
  8. *Or use any seasoning blend that you have on hand. We like our Pizza Seasoning or herbes de Provence.
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a baking sheet, or line with parchment.
  2. Bring the water and butter to a boil in a saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add the flour, salt, and seasoning all at once, and stir until a ball of dough forms.
  3. Remove from the heat, and scrape the dough into the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat for 1 minute, to cool slightly.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating each egg in completely before adding the next one.
  5. Mix in the grated Parmesan just until incorporated.
  6. Using a piping bag fitted with a ½" tip (or a spoon), dollop the thick batter into 1 ½" mounds spaced 1" apart on the baking sheet; a tablespoon cookie scoop works well here.
