Churro Sticks Recipe

Boil Ingredients

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.

Add Flour

Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove it from heat and quickly add 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Incorporate Eggs

Allow the dough to cool for a few minutes, then add 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Mix Sugar and Cinnamon

In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar with 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of cinnamon.

Heat the Oil

In a deep pot or fryer, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

Pipe the Dough

Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Carefully pipe 4-6 inch long strips of dough into the hot oil.

Fry Until Golden

Fry the churros for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pot.

Drain and Coat

Once fried, remove the churros using a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. While still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
