  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make puff pastry tubes with protein custard? Prepare all the necessary products. I put the frozen dough in the refrigerator overnight without opening the package. This way the dough defrosts evenly, does not dry out, and then rolls out well. You can make your own homemade dough. You will find the recipes after the last step. Wash the eggs with soda to get rid of possible harmful bacteria on the shell, dry and cool.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Grease metal cornet cones with butter or sunflower oil. If there are none, then they can be made from baking paper, wrapped with foil on top.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Lightly dust the table with flour. Roll out the dough into a rectangular layer 27-30 cm long, as wide as possible. The thickness of the dough should be about 0.3 cm. Trim the edges evenly. Cut the dough into strips 2.5 cm wide. Crumble the scraps after baking, they can be used as a topping. Place a cone on the strip of dough and wrap it in a spiral from the narrow edge with a slight overlap. Lightly moisten the edge of the strip with water and secure it to the outermost turn of dough.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Place the tube blanks on a baking sheet, seam side down, under a mat or greased parchment. Cover the workpieces with film and leave for 10-15 minutes. Lubricate the workpieces with yolk mixed with milk. I simply grease with vegetable oil, so the color turns out more delicate and uniform. Bake the tubes in a preheated oven for 15-17 minutes until golden brown. The exact time depends on your oven. You can find out more about this in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Remove the finished tubes from the molds, transfer to a wire rack and cool without covering, so they will remain crispy.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Prepare custard cream. To do this, you need to cook the syrup correctly. Pour sugar into a thick-bottomed saucepan and fill it with water. Stirring, cook the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer until slightly discolored, about 4-5 minutes. I indicate the time conditionally, it all depends on the characteristics of the stove. To check readiness, drop the syrup into a saucer of cold water - if a soft ball forms, then the syrup is ready. The syrup can easily be overcooked to caramelize, don’t be distracted!

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Start beating the chilled egg whites with a pinch of salt. Gradually increase speed, add vanillin, lemon juice and continue beating until stiff peaks form. The dishes with the squirrels can be placed in another container with cold water, but I can do it anyway. Continuing to whisk, pour in the hot syrup in a thin stream, being careful not to get it on the beaters. Beat until the mixture cools, about 1-2 minutes. The cream becomes thick and fluffy.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Fill the pastry bag with cream and fill the cooled tubes with it. The tops with cream can be sprinkled with nuts, crumbs from leftover dough, chocolate or coconut shavings, colored confectionery sprinkles, cocoa. The tube itself is sprinkled with powdered sugar through a fine strainer. Baked goods can be stored in the refrigerator, but no more than a day. Bon appetit!

I made the dough for pastry tubes with custard yesterday myself, and today I decided to make tubes with my homemade ready-made dough. I also made the cones, according to your advice, from paper and foil, by the way, they did not spoil, they can be used again. It was interesting to roll the strips of dough onto the cones; in the oven in exactly 15 minutes the tubes were browned and well baked. The cream turned out fluffy and moderately sweet. I filled the tubes with a small spoon. I sprinkled powdered sugar on top and sprinkled a little cocoa on the cream. I’ve already tried it with tea, tender, tasty, interesting.

Thank you Natasha! Yes, I bought cones a long time ago, they are a very convenient and necessary thing, they expand the housewife’s capabilities well - they don’t lie, that’s for sure! And before, I used to twist roll-your-own cigarettes, but they were enough for one time! And now
