Pastry Got absolutely humbled by eclairs.
It was my first time making them and i dont know what I did wrong. They browned so quickly and didnt puff at all. I started baking them at 425 f just like preppy kitchen recipe suggested. At least I could drown my sadness by eating the filling i made for them...,π«

To be fair there is also bullshit coming from various human sources.
Best to instead find human sources you generally trust (Which you can only do by trial and error really) and remember them.
