An elevated donut is what I would describe as the taste of churros. Why? you may ask.
Churros are a precooked dessert. That means that you ‘cook’ the dough then refrigerate it before you fry it. This gives churros the unique texture it has it has, which is a crispy outer layer and a soft custard-like inside.
churros recipe
The first step is to ‘precook’ the dough. We do this by melting the butter, water, salt, vanilla, and sugar in a small pot on low-medium heat. Once everything has melted and combined, add your flour to the mixture. THIS WILL CLUMP UP YOUR MIXTURE, which is very normal. You need to use a wooden spoon to combine everything together. It will feel like a mini arm workout afterward. After all that work remove your pot from the heat and add your egg. Mix with a wooden spoon until it is all done and mixed well.
Now that your dough is formed, pipe your dough onto parchment paper and refrigerate it for 15 minutes. While your dough is in the refrigerator, preheat your sunflower oil, (that is enough to deep fry), on medium heat.
Churros should be about 1cm in breadth and about 8-10 cm long. Making them too thick could affect the cooking time for your churros.
If you do not have a piping bag, you could take small pieces of the churro dough and roll it out in your hand until it is the right size. It does not have to be perfect, the measurements were just a guideline.
in the meantime make your cinnamon sugar, which is used to coat the churro sticks. It is made by combining brown sugar and cinnamon powder.
Fry your churros for 20s -1minute or until they’re light brown all around and crispy on the outside. Once your churros are done place them directly into your cinnamon sugar. The hot oil helps the cinnamon sugar to stick to the churros
