1. 1 Heat the oven to 190°C/fan 170°C/gas 5 and line a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.
2. 2 Put the sweetener, salt, spread and 2/3 cup cold water in a saucepan and bring to the boil. As soon as the mixture reaches the boil, take the pan off the heat and gradually beat in the flour. The mixture will look lumpy at first, but persevere. Continue to beat until the mixture forms a ball of dough and comes away from the sides of the saucepan.
3. 3 Add the eggs to the mixture and beat well to incorporate. It will look as if the mixture has split at first, but continue to beat until it becomes glossy.
4. 4 Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a large nozzle. Pipe 10 eclairs on to the prepared baking tray (they’ll be around 12cm/5in long each). Dab any ‘tails’ down with a wet finger, then bake the eclairs in the oven for 1 hr. Do not open the oven! Not even for a sneaky peek – they’ll likely collapse and you’ll end up with pancakes!
