Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 cups of heavy whipping cream
  • 1 vanilla bean sliced in half longways
  • 6 egg yolks
  • ½ cup of sugar
  • 5 ounces of cold water
  • 1/4 ounce of gelatin
  • 4 ounces of unsalted butter
  • 1 cup of water
  • ½ teaspoon of Kosher salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 eggs
  • honey for garnish
  • powdered sugar for garnish

Instruction

  • Bavarian Cream: Whisk 2 cups of heavy whipping cream in a standing mixer with the whisk attachment on high speed until stiff peaks are formed and then cool.
  • In a medium bowl add the cold water and gelatin together and let sit.
  • Next, add 2 cups of heavy whipping cream and the vanilla bean to a medium-size pot and scald.
  • While the cream is scalding whisk together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl until completely combined.
  • Once the cream has scalded slowly pour it into the egg yolk and sugar mixture to temper it while whisking.
  • Pour the mixture back in the pot and return it to the burner and constantly whisk over medium heat until it becomes thick.
  • Next, whisk in the gelatin/water mixture and chill completely. Once it’s chilled, fold in the whipped cream and add it back to the refrigerator to continue to keep cold and then transfer to a piping bag with a circle tip.
  • Profiteroles: Preheat the oven to 400°.
  • Bring the butter, water, and salt to a boil and then whisk in the flour until it forms a ball. Turn the heat off and let it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Next, whisk in 1 egg at a time until completely combined and then transfer it to a piping bag, no tip required.
  • Pipe 1 tablespoon of dough onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper until the dough has been used up.
  • Bake for 40 minutes and then cool to room temperature.
  • Using your finger push the bottom of the profiterole to make an opening and pipe the Bavarian cream right into the profiterole until it begins to slightly come out of the bottom.
  • Drizzle some honey and sprinkle on some powdered sugar to the Bavarian Cream Stuffed Profiteroles once they are done. Enjoy!
