Method

Churro Bowl Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Heat over medium heat until the mixture comes to a boil.

  2. 2

    Mix in Flour

    Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in the all-purpose flour until a dough forms. Allow the mixture to cool for about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and shiny.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).

  5. 5

    Pipe the Dough

    Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe out a circular shape onto parchment paper, creating a bowl shape.

  6. 6

    Fry the Churros

    Carefully place the churro shapes into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  7. 7

    Coat with Sugar and Cinnamon

    In a small bowl, mix together cinnamon and remaining sugar. Roll the hot churro bowls in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
