Gougère ham and emmental cheese Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup grated Emmental cheese
• 1/2 cup diced ham
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring water, butter, and salt to boil over medium heat. Add flour all at once and stir vigorously until mixture comes together in a ball and pulls away from the sides, about 2 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Mixture should be smooth and glossy.
4. Mix in the cheese, ham, and black pepper until evenly distributed.
5. Spoon 1 tablespoon of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart. You can also use a piping bag to pipe them onto the sheet.
6. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. Then serve.
