These Cheesy Mushroom Gougeres are a fantastic snack. A gougere is a French baked savory pastry made of choux dough mixed with cheese. These delicious mushroom cheese puffs make the best party food!
Start by sauteing mushrooms. Make a warm dough by combining water, milk, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and add the flour. Stir quickly until a dough ball forms. Remove the dough from the heat and transfer to a stand mixer. Let cool before mixing in eggs one at a time and mix until combined. Add cheese, mushroom mixture and mix until combined. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto baking sheets. Bake until golden brown and serve warm.
To make my Cheesy Mushroom Gougeres, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 425 °F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 8 ounces of finely chopped mushrooms. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme and cook until softened. Set aside to cool.
Combine ½ cup of water with ½ cup of milk, 4 tablespoons of butter and ¼ teaspoon of salt in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Add 1 cup of flour and stir quickly into the mixture using a wooden spoon until the dough starts to pull away from the pan and forms a ball. Cook for one extra minute while stirring.
Remove the dough from the heat and place in a stand mixer. Let cool before mixing in 4 large eggs one at a time. Continue to mix until fully combined.
Add 8 ounces of cheese and the mushroom mixture. Mix until fully combined.
Use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to drop rounds 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.
Serve warm.
