Churros

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Making the Churro Dough

    In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in flour until a dough forms. Let the dough cool for a few minutes.

  2. 2

    Adding Eggs

    Once the dough has cooled slightly, add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Preparing the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).

  4. 4

    Frying 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 with scissors. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 2-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Coating the Churros

    In a shallow bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Roll hot churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
