- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F) and place a muffin tin or small oven-safe pans inside to heat.
- In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly frothy. Let batter rest for 5 minutes.
- Carefully remove hot pan and add a small piece of butter to each cup, letting it melt completely.

Notes
A hot pan is key to achieving the signature puff.Do not overmix the batter; a smooth consistency is enough.Serve immediately, as they will naturally deflate after baking.
