👨‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough

In a saucepan, bring water, sugar, salt, and butter to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in the flour all at once. Mix vigorously until a dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

Let it cool for 5 minutes, then beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until smooth.

Step 2: Form the Snacks

Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 2-inch strips (or small dots for bite-sized pieces) onto a lined baking sheet or directly into hot oil if frying.

Step 3: Bake or Fry

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes until golden, or
Fry in hot oil (350°F / 175°C) for about 2–3 minutes per side until crispy and golden brown.

Drain on paper towels.

Step 4: Add the Coating

While warm, brush the churro snacks with melted butter and toss in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
