Easy French Cream Puffs
These Easy French Cream Puffs are so adorable and I had so much fun making them (and even more eating them lol). It may be my European roots but I love anything French and of course pastry and these little gems have been on my list for a long time. I love watching these baking in the oven, puffing up in the heat, all crackly and full of air!
The Choux a la creme dessert is undoubtedly considered the “king of desserts”. I must confess that at first I found it difficult to make them, they looked intimidating to me. Over time I’ve tried a few cream puffs recipes to get the absolutely perfect recipe.
These look gorgeous.
Thank you, Peter, you’re very kind.
These look just divine!
Thanks so much, Debra! Have a lovely day!
Dear Petro,
These look absolutely delicious!!

Thanks so much, Catherine! xoxo
What beautiful Cream Puffs! Your recipe sounds so do-able too – I can’t wait to try them!
Thanks so much, April! You will love them!
Love choux buns, and aren’t they so much easier than you fear before you do them? So indulgent too, as you say!
Hi Kavey and thanks for stopping by! They are way easier than I thought, indeed! They look so scrumptious and quite fancy but they’re easy peasy!
I love any European foods and especially pastries. These look scrumptious. I clicked to continue reading to get the recipe and “click” turns to “pin it”, which I did. After I pin it do I now have the recipe? I sure hope so. If not what do I need to do? Thanks and continue posting your delicious recipes!
Thanks so much, Becky! Pinning will save the image and the link to my post to your Pinterest board so you can easily access it whenever you need the recipe. The actual instructions are below the image you pinned and if you scroll a little more down the bottom of my post there’s a recipe card you can save or print for future references. Hope that helps and thanks again for stopping by! xoxo
Oooo, these look so tempting. The photos are beautiful. #recipeoftheweek
These look easy enough to try out but was wondering if I can make everything in one day and put them together next day. Will the whip cream be still good the next day? Do you think I need to store the pastry in a tight lid container?
Hi Gloria. I never tried to make the recipe the next day but I imagine an airtight container would keep the batter good for a few hours. Not sure how fluff and airy the puffs will get though.As for the whip cream, it should last you more than just a day.
In your easy French Cream Puffs Recipe could you clarify some measurements. Under For the filling: can vanilla extract be used instead of “4 sticks vanilla”? You also state “1 spoon butter.” Is that a teaspoon or tablespoon?
Hi Diane. Appologies for the confusion, that would be tablespoon. As for vanilla, you can replace the sticks with 4teaspoons extract but there will be a difference in taste as the sticks give a much fresher taste than extract. Still tasty though. Hope you’ll enjoy your puffs as much as we do & thanks so much for making my recipe! xoxo
This is one of my favorite desserts, your puffs look so delicious I’m tempted to start baking today!
