Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, combine water and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in flour and salt until the mixture forms a ball.
- Let the dough cool for a few minutes, then add eggs one at a time. Mix well after each addition.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
