Ingredients

To make scrumptious churros, you will need the following ingredients:

• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup canola oil (for frying)
• 1/2 cup sugar (for coating)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for coating)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create the perfect churros:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine water, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
2. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in flour until the mixture is smooth. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Gradually mix them into the cooled dough until fully combined.
4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. You want at least 2 inches of oil for frying.
5. Transfer the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 6-inch long strips into the hot oil, cutting them with scissors.
6. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown. Remove churros with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels.
7. Mix 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl, then roll the hot churros in this mixture.
