Churros are a traditional Spanish treat, originally coated in cinnamon sugar, although they’re sometimes served with chocolate too.
I usually make two versions: a chocolate one for the kids and the classic cinnamon sugar one for the grown-ups. I almost always tweak recipes a little until I get the exact flavor and texture I’m looking for, and this is one of those recipes that turned out absolutely amazing!
Ingredients
* 240 g water
* 110 g unsalted butter
* 125 g all-purpose flour
* 15 g sugar
* ¼ tsp salt
* 3 large eggs (you may need a 4th egg depending on the consistency)
* 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
1. Make the dough
Bring the water, butter, sugar, and salt to a boil.
Once it reaches a full boil, add all the flour at once and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon.
Cook over medium heat for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the dough comes together into a smooth ball and a thin film forms on the bottom of the pot.
This step is essential because it removes excess moisture from the dough.
2. Cool the dough
Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl or stand mixer and let it cool for about 5–10 minutes, until it’s warm rather than hot (around 50°C / 120°F).
3. Add the eggs

The finished dough should be:
* Smooth and glossy
* Easy to pipe
* Soft, but not runny
If it still feels too stiff after 3 eggs, add half of a fourth egg and check the consistency.* Smooth and glossy

5. Fry
Heat the oil to 175–180°C (350–355°F). Fry for about 2½–3 minutes per side, until they’re beautifully golden brown. While they’re still warm, toss them in cinnamon sugar.
Enjoy ❤️👩🏻🍳
