Instructions

To start off this delightful Churros Recipe With Cinnamon & Sugar, we will prepare the churro dough. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, water, butter, sugar, and salt, whisking them together until fully blended. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring this mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

While waiting for the mixture to boil, if you are using baking powder, combine it with the all-purpose flour in a separate bowl and set aside. In case you prefer the traditional egg version, we’ll incorporate eggs later in the process.

Once your mixture reaches a rolling boil, promptly remove it from the heat. Gradually add the prepared flour mixture, stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough comes together smoothly without any lumps. The dough will thicken and become somewhat elastic. If you are using eggs, this is the moment to beat them into the dough. While continuously stirring, gradually add the eggs to the mixture using a hand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or a whisk. Be mindful, as a whisk can cause the dough to split; however, after integrating the eggs, switch to kneading the dough by hand for a few seconds until it comes together nicely.

Next, it’s time to fry our churros! In a deep frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 170°C (340°F). To check if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of dough into the hot oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.

While the oil heats, transfer the churro dough into a pastry bag or a zip lock bag and clip one end. Fit a large or medium star tip into the bag to create that classic churro shape. Pipe lengths of dough approximately 4 to 6 inches directly into the hot oil, snipping the ends with scissors to release them. Be cautious to snip close to the oil’s surface to avoid splashes.

Fry about 4 to 5 churros at a time, depending on the size of your frying pan. Turn the churros occasionally as they fry, ensuring they achieve a beautiful golden-brown color. It’s essential to keep the heat medium, as churros need to cook thoroughly from the inside.

Once they’re perfectly fried, use a slotted spoon to transfer the churros onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Allow them to cool slightly before rolling them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

To prepare the coating, mix the caster sugar with the cinnamon on a large plate and set it aside for coating the warm churros. When the churros are cool enough to handle but still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mix until they are evenly coated and deliciously fragrant.

Serve your warm Churros Recipe With Cinnamon & Sugar immediately, either as they are or alongside delightful dips like homemade caramel sauce or rich chocolate ganache. These churros are perfect for snack time, parties, or any festive occasion, inviting everyone to indulge in the sweet joy they bring!
