Step 2

Reduce heat and add flour. Using a wooden spoon, mix vigorously until the mixture form into a dough. Remove from heat.

Step 3

While stirring, gradually add the eggs into the dough. Mix well. Add the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip.

Step 4

Heat about 2 inches of oil in a heavy pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 365°F.

Step 5

Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon on a plate and set aside.

Step 6

Squeeze churro dough into hot oil. About 4-inch strips. Fry 5 to 6 churros at a time until golden brown. About 2 minutes per side. When ready, transfer into a plate lined with paper towels.

Step 7

Roll churros in the sugar-cinnamon mix. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Additional Tips

Serve churros with a chocolate sauce you can make out of chocolate chips and heavy cream. Cook 8 ounces of semisweet chocolate chips with ½ cup of heavy cream over a double boiler on top of simmering water until smooth.
