Recipe: Churro Bites Bliss
Ingredients:
For the churros:
1 cup water
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs (or 2 tbsp flaxseed meal mixed with 6 tbsp water for vegan)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Vegetable oil for frying
For the cinnamon sugar coating:
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
Directions:
Boil the Water Mixture In a medium saucepan, combine the water, granulated sugar, and unsalted butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option). Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the butter has melted completely.
Make the Dough Once the water mixture is boiling, remove it from the heat. Gradually stir in the all-purpose flour, mixing until a smooth dough forms. The dough should easily pull away from the sides of the pan and form a ball.
Cool the Dough and Add Eggs Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Once cooled slightly, add the eggs (or flaxseed mixture for vegan), one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until the dough is smooth and slightly sticky.
Prepare for Frying In a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). A candy thermometer can help ensure the oil is the right temperature for frying.
Pipe the Dough Spoon the churro dough into a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped nozzle tip. Pipe 1-inch strips of dough directly into the hot oil, using scissors to cut the dough as you go. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan, as it may lower the oil temperature.
Fry the Churro Bites Fry the churro bites in batches, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown on all sides—this should take about 2-3 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to remove the churro bites from the oil and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Coat with Cinnamon Sugar In a shallow bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. While the churro bites are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.
Serve Warm Serve your churro bites warm for the best flavor and texture. For an extra indulgent treat, consider serving them with dipping sauces like melted chocolate or caramel.
