Introduction

Churro Snacks are a fun and delicious twist on the classic churro dessert! These bite-sized treats are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and coated with a perfect mix of cinnamon and sugar. Whether you’re serving them at a party, movie night, or simply indulging your sweet tooth, these churro snacks are sure to satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 2 ½ tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

For the coating:

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Optional (for serving):

  • Chocolate sauce or caramel sauce for dipping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a medium saucepan, combine water, sugar, salt, and oil. Bring the mixture to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in the flour until a smooth dough forms.
  2. Cool the dough: Allow the dough to cool for 10–15 minutes, just enough so you can handle it safely.
  3. Pipe the churros: Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe small bite-sized pieces onto a parchment-lined tray or directly into hot oil if you’re confident.
  4. Fry: Heat oil in a deep pan to about 375°F (190°C). Fry the churro bites until golden brown and crisp, turning occasionally for even cooking (2–3 minutes per batch).
  5. Coat with cinnamon sugar: Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Roll the hot churro snacks in the mixture until fully coated.
  6. Serve: Serve warm with chocolate or caramel dipping sauce.

Description

These Churro Snacks are light, crunchy, and filled with comforting cinnamon-sugar flavor. They’re a smaller, easier-to-eat version of traditional churros—perfect for sharing and snacking. The soft interior contrasts beautifully with the crisp golden exterior, making them irresistible for dessert lovers of all ages.

Tips

  • Use a star piping tip for that classic churro texture.
  • Make sure your oil is hot enough before frying—cold oil will make churros soggy.
  • You can bake them at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes if you prefer a lighter version.
  • Toss the churros in the cinnamon sugar immediately after frying so it sticks well.
  • Leftovers? Reheat in an air fryer for a few minutes to regain crispiness.

Correction

If your churro dough feels too runny, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it firms up. If it’s too thick to pipe, add a teaspoon of warm water and mix until it loosens slightly.

Enjoy

Dip your golden, crispy churro snacks into rich chocolate or smooth caramel sauce, and enjoy the warm, sweet comfort of this classic treat in every bite! Perfect for dessert, parties, or just a cozy night in.
