1
Prepare the Dough
In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
2
Add Flour
Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the flour until fully incorporated and a ball forms.
3
Incorporate Eggs
Allow the dough to cool slightly, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

4
Mix Sugar and Cinnamon
In a shallow dish, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside for coating the churros.

5
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
6
Pipe the Churros
Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Carefully pipe 6-inch strips of dough into the hot oil.
7
Fry Until Golden
Fry the churros for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
8
Coat in Sugar
While still warm, roll the churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat them evenly.
