Churros Ingredients
Method
Churros Directions
Add Flour
Once boiling, remove from heat and add flour. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball. Let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Incorporate Eggs
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth.
Heat the Oil
In a deep fryer or large pot, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).
Pipe the Churros
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 4-6 inch strips into the hot oil, cutting with scissors.
Fry Until Golden
Fry churros until they are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Coat with Cinnamon Sugar
In a bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon. Roll the warm churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.
Serve
Serve immediately while warm, optionally with chocolate sauce for dipping.
