Antipasti Puffs

Bruce Weinstein and

Mark Scarbrough

Serves: 18 (2 puffs each)
 
These hot appetizers are made from the same dough as cream puffs. But they’re savory, and filled with pimentos, artichokes, and olives instead of pastry cream.

Ingredients:
1 cup water
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 large egg
4 large egg whites
6 tablespoons GNC Soy Protein Unflavored
1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
One (6-ounce) jar sliced pimentos, drained
One (6-ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1/4 cup chopped, pitted green olives (about 10)
4 to 5 dashes Tabasco Sauce
 
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a medium pot, bring the water, oil, salt, and pepper to a boil over medium heat. Add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until a soft smooth dough forms. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring the dough 2 minutes, or until a film forms over the inside of the pan. Transfer the dough to the large bowl of an electric mixer and cool for 10 minutes.

3. With the mixer set on medium speed, add the egg and beat until it is completely incorporated. Beat in the egg whites, one at a time, beating well between each addition.

4. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the protein powder, cheese, pimentos, artichokes, olives, and Tabasco. Beat until well blended.

5. Place heaping tablespoonsful of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2-inches apart. Bake for 35 minutes or until the puffs are golden brown.
