1 cup whole milk (room temperature)
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (for muffin tin)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 450°F and place muffin tin inside to heat.
2. In a bowl, whisk eggs and milk until frothy.
3. Add flour and salt, then whisk until smooth. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
4. Remove muffin tin, add 1 tsp oil to each cup, and return to oven for 2 minutes.
5. Carefully pour batter into each cup halfway full.
6. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F and bake another 15–20 minutes.
7. Remove from tin and cool slightly on a wire rack.
Notes
Don’t open the oven while baking—you’ll lose that precious steam.
Use room temperature milk and eggs for best puff.
Reheat leftovers in the oven, not the microwave, to keep them crispy.
