Instructies

In a saucepan, add water, butter, sugar, and salt. Heat on medium until the butter melts and the mixture starts to simmer.

Add the flour all at once and stir quickly with a spoon until a thick dough forms.

Remove from heat and let the dough cool for about 5 minutes.

Add the egg and vanilla extract, then mix well until the dough becomes smooth and pipeable.

Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle.

Heat oil in a deep pan to about 175–180°C.

Pipe the dough directly into the hot oil and cut with scissors to form churro strips.

Fry for about 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Mix sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.

Roll the hot churros in the cinnamon sugar mixture and serve warm.
