  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 30 bites

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for coating)
  • Chocolate sauce (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil.
  3. Remove from heat and add flour all at once, stirring vigorously until a dough forms.
  4. Let the dough cool slightly, then beat in the egg until smooth.
  5. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
  6. Pipe small bite-sized strips onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Toss the baked bites in the cinnamon sugar mixture while warm.
  9. Drizzle with chocolate sauce if desired before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the dough is slightly cooled before adding the egg to prevent curdling.
  • For extra crunch, bake an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • You can substitute chocolate sauce with caramel or fruit compote for variation.
