Churros



Today we are sharing a recipe for Churros with you.  I made these also for Charly's birthday and they came out so good.  Danny was my taste tester.  I think he ate about the first 10 that I made, giving feedback.  He felt like this was a really tough job.  It was so hard he had to go take a nap after he finished eating these great Churros.  We ended up getting them just right.  So today we present you with a recipe for Churros that I found at Laurie in the Kitchen


Churros

Ingredients:

1 cup water
1 cup flour
3 TB unsalted butter
1 TB vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 TB sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
vegetable oil for frying
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

Fill a dutch oven 1/2 full with oil and heat over medium heat to 375 degrees.

In a large saucepan add water, butter, vegetable oil, 1 TB sugar, vanilla, and salt and bring to a boil.

Turn the Heat down to low and add the flour, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns into a ball.  Cook for 1 about 1 minute, still stirring constantly.

Add dough to a mixing bowl and add 1 egg at a time, mixing well in between each addition.

Add the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.

Pipe 5 inch ropes into the hot oil, making sure to keep the oil at 375 degrees while cooking.


Cook for 2 minutes each side and remove from the oil.

Drain on a paper towel

Mix cinnamon and sugar and role in the cinnamon and sugar mixture.


Repeat this process, cooking all of the dough.

We hope that you like this recipe for Churros.  We always love hearing from you.

  2. These look amazing, Debi! Anything with cinnamon and sugar that's deep fried has to be good. :) Thanks for sharing the recipe. Linda
