Hey everyone, I’m super excited to share my latest twist on a classic treat, Churros Whooo! This recipe is a game changer if you’ve ever craved that perfect crunch paired with a sweet finish.

I start off mixing 1 cup water with 2 tablespoons sugar, a pinch of salt, and add in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to create a smooth batter when I later stir in 1 cup all-purpose flour. The process is simple yet satisfying.

Once you have your dough ready, you deep fry little strips until they turn golden brown and then toss them in a delicious cinnamon sugar mix that’s made from 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. I’ve been inspired by some quick food truck foods and creative churro ideas to bring you this snack that fits right into any churro bar or cafeteria food idea.

  • Vegetable oil binds the mix and gives a smooth, rich dough consistency.
  • All-purpose flour supplies carbohydrates and a little protein to shape the churros.

FAQ

A: You don't really have to but a piping bag with a star tip makes it way easier to get a crisp and even shape. If you dont have one, a sturdy ziplock bag with a tiny snip in one corner can work too.

A: Any vegetable oil with a high smoke point, like canola or sunflower oil works good. Make sure its deep enough in the pan so the churros can fry evenly.

A: It's best to fry the dough fresh because it tends to change texture when stored. If you must prep ahead, keep it covered in the fridge and bring back to room temperature before frying.

A: When it ready, it should be smooth and a bit thick. If its too runny it wont hold its shape well and if its too dry then your churros might come out dense.

A: Fry at a steady medium-high heat and dont overcrowd the pan. This way the churros get nicely crisp on the outside while staying soft inside.

Churros Whooo Recipe Substitutions and Variations

  • Water: You could use milk instead of water to add a bit more richness to the dough, just be aware that it might make the churros a little denser
  • Sugar: Another option is using honey or even brown sugar in place of white sugar; since these are sweeter you may need to adjust the amount
  • Vegetable oil: Canola oil works well as a substitute or you might try using melted butter for a bit of a deeper flavor, although it may alter the texture slightly
  • All-purpose flour: If you’re into experimenting, try a gluten-free flour blend or even whole wheat flour for a nuttier taste; just note that the consistency of the churros might change a bit

Pro Tips

1. When you’re mixing in the flour, make sure you stir it in full and don’t rush it so that you get a nice smooth dough that won’t cause lumps later on.
2. Keep an eye on the oil temperature; using a little candy thermometer or simply testing with a small piece of dough can help make sure it stays around 350°F.
3. If you dont have a piping bag, a resealable plastic bag with one tiny corner snipped works just as well, but try not to make the opening too big or the dough might come out too messy.
4. Experiment with the finishing touch by adding a pinch of extra cinnamon or even a little bit of cocoa powder to the sugar mix for a fun twist without overpowering the classic flavor.
