This lightly fried dough tossed in cinnamon and sugar makes the perfect sweet snack.
Ingredients:
Vegetable oil (enough to fill a deep pot 2 inches or a deep fryer)
1 cup water
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt (optional)
1/3 cup unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Add oil to a pot or deep fryer and preheat to 375 oF.
2. In a separate pan, combine water, brown sugar, salt, and butter. Let ingredients come to a boil. Once boiling, remove pan from heat and stir in flour. Mix in eggs and vanilla.
3. Let the dough sit for about 10 minutes to cool, and during that time, prepare an icing bag with star-tip or a ziplock bag with a cut corner.
4. When the oil has come to temperature, pipe a 4-6 cm long churro into the pot of oil and use a knife to disconnect the dough from the piping bag. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry no more than four at once.
5. Fry churros for two to three minutes, or until you observe at once.
6. While churros are frying, mix together granulated sugar and cinnamon.
7. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove churros from pot and place them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
8. Wait one to two minutes and toss churros in the pre-prepared cinnamon-sugar mixture.
