Description

If you don't have a pastry bag or a syringe, take a regular plastic bag, cut off the tip — just a millimeter — and you have a pastry bag, but don't squeeze too hard, or you'll end up in the cream)

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 1 cup
Butter - 3.5 oz
Farm fresh eggs - 3 pieces
Salt - a pinch
Water - 1 cup
Beans - 1 piece
10% cream - 3 fl oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Boil one cup of water, add salt and cut-up butter. Reduce the heat to minimum and sift in the flour, stirring continuously until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

Step 2

Transfer the dough to a bowl, beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly each time, and whisk the dough until it becomes a smooth, shiny mass.

Step 3

Using a pastry bag or two spoons, place the dough on parchment paper — the size of a walnut, previously dusting the paper with flour.

Step 4

Bake in the oven at 392°F for 10 minutes, then increase to 220 degrees and bake for another 10-15 minutes. Then remove and poke a small hole with a knife to let the steam out, so you can later fill it with our cream.

Step 5

Make the cream: slice the banana and throw it into a blender, pour in the cream, and blend until smooth. Transfer the cream to a pastry bag (you can use a syringe) and fill it into the hole you made with the knife.
