Eggs, Wheat

Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup all
• purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and stir in flour until the dough forms a ball. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2. Add eggs one at a time into the dough, mixing well after each addition. Transfer to a piping bag with a large star tip.
3. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan to 350°F (175°C). Pipe strips of dough directly into the hot oil and use a knife or scissors to cut them off. Fry for about 2 3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
4. In a shallow dish, combine sugar and cinnamon. Remove fried churros from oil and immediately toss in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Chef’s Insight

Use a high smoke point oil for frying, such as canola or grapeseed.
