Nutritional yeast adds flavor without dairy.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt; bring to a boil.

Add flour all at once, stirring vigorously until a dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before adding eggs one at a time, mixing until smooth after each addition.

Stir in grated cheese, finely chopped black truffle, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.

Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.

Pipe small mounds onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly.

Brush the tops with egg wash for a golden finish.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
