Ingredients
For the Choux Pastry:
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
For the Pumpkin Spice Cream Filling:
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup pumpkin purée
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Make the Puffs:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a saucepan, combine water, milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil.
Remove from heat, stir in flour quickly. Return to low heat, stir until dough forms a smooth ball.
Let cool 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well.
Pipe 1-inch mounds onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake 20–25 minutes until puffed and golden. Cool completely.
Make the Filling:
In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream to soft peaks. In a separate bowl, whisk pumpkin purée, powdered sugar, spice, and vanilla.
Fold in whipped cream gently. Chill until ready to use.
Assemble:
Cut off tops of puffs or make a small hole in the bottom. Fill with pumpkin spice cream using a piping bag.
Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted white chocolate for extra flair.
