Churro Snacks

Components of the Churros:

1. One cup of water
2. Half a cup of unsalted butter
3. One spoonful of sugar, granulated
4. One-fourth teaspoon of salt
5. One cup of all-purpose flour
6. Two huge eggs
7. One teaspoon of vanilla extract
8. Canola or vegetable oil for frying

For the sugar and cinnamon:

1. Half a cup of sugar, granulated
2. One teaspoon of cinnamon powder

Directions

Get the cinnamon sugar ready:

• Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Put aside.

Make the dough for the churros:

• Put the water, butter, sugar, and salt in a medium pot. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil.
• After it starts to boil, turn off the heat and mix in the flour until it’s all mixed in. A ball will develop out of the mixture.
• After a few minutes of cooling, stir in the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix the dough until it’s glossy and smooth.

Warm up the oil:

• Heat about 2 inches of oil to 350°F (175°C) in a big skillet or pot.

Pipe the Churros:

• Spoon the churro dough into a piping bag that has a star tip attached.
• Pipe dough strips, about 4–6 inches long, carefully into the heated oil. Avoid packing the pan too full and fry in batches.

Cook the churros:

• The churros should be fried until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• To drain excess oil, remove them from the oil with tongs and lay them on a plate lined with paper towels.

Apply a layer of cinnamon sugar:

• Roll the churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture until completely coated, while they are still warm.

Serve:

• Savor your homemade churros by themselves or dip them in some chocolate sauce!
• These churros are the ideal snack or dessert because they are soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Have fun!
