As a resident home economics teacher in this fandom I& #39;ve taken it upon myself to try out awae recipes, so here& #39;s a tag boost thread no one asked for

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">Live tweeting making Marilla& #39;s plum puffs so you don& #39;t have tohttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">

I& #39;m armed with my recipe and after a brief trip to Tesco I now have my ingredients (shout out to blackberry jam for the last minute substitution because tesco isn& #39;t boujee enough for the real stuff)

Two seconds in and we& #39;ve already hit a stumbling block. Presumably 220°C in ye olden dayes was necessary but my oven is fan assisted https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">

We& #39;ll try 200°C and pray to Mary Berry and the ghost of Marilla that all goes well

#renewannewithane
Despite Marilla& #39;s suggestion, I& #39;ll be forgoing the old pan with two handles and using a newer pan with one handle

Hoping that isn& #39;t what turns this from a success into a failure

#renewannewithane
Lo and behold! Another stumbling block!

I& #39;m a metric measurement wench and cups mean NOTHING to me https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏻‍♀️" title="Achselzuckende Frau (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Achselzuckende Frau (heller Hautton)">

Hoping this mug will suffice as a cup measurement
#renewannewithane
The butter directly into water thing is making me marginally uncomfy and I& #39;m not sure what temperature to heat it at https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏻‍♀️" title="Achselzuckende Frau (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Achselzuckende Frau (heller Hautton)">

Going mid temp because I& #39;m a little afraid of the water boiling off before the butter melts

#renewannewithane
Fat and water do not emulsify so this is looking a little grim https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😬" title="Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht">

(and yes my photography skills are shocking)
#renewannewithane
Our girl Marilla knew what she was doing

Apparently I& #39;m making a little choux pastry

(and yes, I did spill sugar everywhere)
#renewannewithane
And now we wait for the pastry to cool a little because I& #39;m pretty sure scrambled egg puffs would win no prizes at all

#renewannewithane
Adding eggs one at a time as advised

1 egg in and this mixture is ~sticky~ had to abandon my whisk for a wooden spoon *Irish children up and down the country quake*

#renewannewithane
2 eggs in and it& #39;s a little looser

Rachel Lynde made it look so easy to stir though. Either she& #39;s a liar or I& #39;m super weak

And this is what we& #39;re currently working with
#renewannewithane
Also, shout out to Seamus who lives up the road for the eggs

Wishing him and his chickens the very best https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">
#renewannewithane
Not a lot of direction in portioning these out, just drop it onto a tray in two inch blobs

I don& #39;t think this mixture will make too many either but I live in hope

#renewannewithane
And into the oven they go!

I got 9 out of the mixture but might have gotten more if I had a better concept of what 2 inches looks like

Baking them for 15 minutes and I& #39;ll see how I go from there

#renewannewithane
Can confirm they are puffing up deliciously but are browning a little too quickly for my liking so I& #39;m turning the oven down

#renewannewithane
15 minutes is up but some are still a little pasty (much like myself) so back into the oven they go for 5 more minutes

#renewannewithane
And we have puffs!

They look a little yellowy because it& #39;s almost 10 here and my big light is on

They& #39;ve grown sizeably during their time in the oven https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😌" title="Erleichtertes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Erleichtertes Gesicht">

#renewannewithane
Ok so, they& #39;ve cooled and are about to be filled

All I can say at this stage is blessed be the electric whisk!

#renewannewithane
And there we have them! Some little puffs ready for tea and sampling!

Will be back with concluding thoughts soon https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏻" title="Folded hands (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Folded hands (heller Hautton)">

#renewannewithane
Alrighty, well this took a lot longer than it should of but anything worth winning a prize deserves a little love I guess

#renewannewithane
These were delicious (may have been made better if I had actual plum jam) and I& #39;d make them again

The recipe was easy to follow once I worked out the cups and they baked in twenty minutes so were pretty quick

#renewannewithane
All in all, I& #39;d say our 1899 baking queen was worthy of her top prize (lemon drizzle wasn& #39;t a thing then, right?)

Blue ribbons all around!

Ps. My dad really enjoyed them and he& #39;s super fussy so that was a big thumbs up https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👍🏻" title="Thumbs up (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Thumbs up (heller Hautton)">
#renewannewithane
Also @YoWalleyB if you have anymore old recipes hiding in your archives please share them!.

I would do this again https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😌" title="Erleichtertes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Erleichtertes Gesicht">
