Allergens

None (as long as using a dairy-free dark chocolate)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all
  • purpose flour
  • 2 cups vegetable oil, for frying
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup dairy
  • free dark chocolate, chopped
  • 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, water, salt, and sugar until a smooth dough forms. Transfer to a piping bag and set aside.
  2. In a separate saucepan, combine the chopped dark chocolate, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Heat gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, until a smooth sauce is formed. Set aside.
  3. Pour vegetable oil into a deep frying pan, ensuring there is about 1 inch of oil in the pan. Heat to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Pipe 4 inch lengths of dough directly into the hot oil using a pair of scissors or knife. Fry until golden brown, turning occasionally for even browning, approximately 2 minutes per side.
  5. Remove fried churros from the oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  6. Immediately sprinkle the churros with cinnamon and nutmeg while they are still warm and pliable.
  7. Serve the churros warm, alongside the chocolate dipping sauce for a truly decadent treat!
