Delicious Churro Donuts Recipe
These churro donuts are made from a sweet dough, fried until golden brown, and rolled in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields about 12 donuts.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- Oil for frying
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then remove from heat and stir in flour until a dough forms.
- Add Eggs: Allow the dough to cool slightly, then add eggs one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Heat Oil: In a deep pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C) for frying.
- Fry the Donuts: Use a piping bag fitted with a large star tip to pipe the dough into the hot oil in donut shapes. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
