Why Make Churros at Home
While you can often find churros at fairs, carnivals, and food stands, there is something special about making them in your own kitchen. By following our easy-to-follow recipe, you can customize the flavor, ensure the freshness of the ingredients, and enjoy the process of creating these delicious treats.
Ingredients You'll Need
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Cinnamon sugar, for coating
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preparing the Dough
In a saucepan, combine the water, butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
Step 2: Frying the Churros
Fill a large, deep skillet with vegetable oil and heat it to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped nozzle. Carefully pipe long strips of dough directly into the hot oil, using scissors or a knife to cut the dough. Fry the churros until they turn golden brown and crispy, approximately 4-5 minutes.
Step 3: Coating with Cinnamon Sugar
Once cooked, remove the churros from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. While still warm, roll the churros in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar to coat them evenly. The sweet and aromatic combination will elevate the flavor profile of your homemade churros.
Serving and Enjoying Your Churros
Homemade churros are best served warm and fresh, so gather your friends and family to enjoy these delightful treats together. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces like melted chocolate, caramel, or even fruit jams to add an extra layer of indulgence.
