Crisp Churros with Cinnamon and Sugar

Makes About 10

Water 1 Cup

Granulated Sugar 2 ½ Tbsp.

Salt ½ tsp.

Canola Oil 2 Tbsp.

All Purpose Flour 1 Cup

Granulated Sugar ½ Cup

Ground Cinnamon 2 tsp.

Canola Oil for Frying As Needed


• In a saucepan, combine the first four ingredients. Bring to a boil.

• Add the flour all at one time and stir over low heat until a smooth ball forms.

• In a bowl combine the second measure of sugar and cinnamon, mix thoroughly and reserve.

• Heat the oil for frying in a wide, deep skillet to 375°f.

• Transfer the ball of dough into a pastry bag and pipe small tubular lengths, about 4” long into the hot oil. Use a paring knife to cut the dough when it reaches the correct lengths.

• Fry a few at a time, turning occasionally until a deep golden brown. Carefully drain and while still hot dredge fully in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Great served with hot chocolate or chocolate sauce.
