How to Make Mushroom Gougere

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until a smooth paste forms (a roux).
  3. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  4. Stir in the grated Gruyère cheese, sautéed mushrooms, salt, and pepper.
  5. Fold in the stiffly-beaten egg whites gently until just combined.
  6. Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip (or use two spoons to drop mounds onto the baking sheet).
  7. Pipe or spoon 2-inch mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
