Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper. 

2. 2

   Cut the butter into small pieces and put in a saucepan with milk, water, and kosher salt. Bring to a boil. 

3. 3

   Add all of the flour at once, reduce heat, and stir with a wooden spoon. After about 2 minutes, the dough will start drying out and pulling away from the pan. That’s precisely what you want. This will make your gougères crispy on the outside. 

4. 4

   Scrape the dough into a mixing bowl and let cool for a couple of minutes.

5. 5

   Add eggs one at a time and beat them into the dough.

6. 6

   Once the dough is mixed well, add cheese, Dijon mustard, black pepper, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper, and mix again. 

7. 7

   Transfer the dough into a pastry bag with a 1/2” round tip and pipe tablespoon mounds two inches apart on the baking sheets. You can also use a spoon or a cookie scoop instead. 

8. 8

   Bake for about 25 minutes until they’re nicely puffed up and golden brown. Gougères Gruyère are best served warm. Enjoy!
