Churros

Dulce de Leche Dipping Sauce

Method

Churros

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Add flour all at once and stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Add Eggs

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

  3. 3

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Pipe the Churros

    Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 4-6 inch strips of dough into the hot oil, cutting them with scissors.

  5. 5

    Fry the Churros

    Fry churros until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Coat in Cinnamon Sugar

    In a shallow bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon together. Roll the warm churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
