Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 190 degrees. In a saucepan, bring sugar, water, salt, and butter to a boil. Add flour and melt in it, then put it back on the stove, reduce the heat and cook rapidly for 3 minutes, then cool. Add the eggs one by one and knead. Fill the dough into a cream piping bag. Place baking paper on a tray, squeeze with 2 cm intervals to make 20-22 pieces. Bake in the oven for 30-45 minutes until they are nicely browned.
  2. Take milk in a saucepan and start heating. In another mixing bowl, mix sugar, salt, cornstarch, and vanilla, add egg yolks and mix until homogeneous. When the milk reaches boiling point, slowly add the egg mixture. When the cream thickens, remove from heat. Add butter. When cooled, add the pumpkin puree and mix.
  3. Put butter, sugar, cream, and salt in a saucepan and cook for 5 minutes. When cooled, add the tahini and mix.
  4. Cut the profiterole balls in half and distribute the pumpkin cream between them. Drizzle with the prepared tahini sauce and sprinkle with seeds.
