Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough:
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For Frying:
- Vegetable oil (enough to fill the pot 2-3 inches deep)
Instructions
- Make the Dough:
In a saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and stir in flour until a dough forms and pulls away from the sides. Remove from heat. - Add Eggs:
Let the dough cool slightly, then mix in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Add vanilla extract and mix until smooth. - Heat Oil:
Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F, ensuring it’s deep enough for frying. - Fry the Poppers:
Using a spoon or piping bag, drop small portions of dough into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels. - Serve:
Roll the churro poppers in cinnamon sugar or serve with your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
- Ensure the oil is hot enough to prevent soggy poppers.
- Cinnamon sugar makes a classic coating for churros.
- These are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in the oven for a crisp texture.
