All-purpose flour forms the foundation of the churro dough, providing the necessary structure and stability. Its gluten content helps create a chewy texture that is characteristic of churros. When combined with the other ingredients, flour contributes to the overall consistency and allows the dough to hold its shape during frying. It’s essential to use the right amount of flour to achieve the perfect balance between crispiness and softness.

Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup unsalted butter

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Vegetable oil (for frying)

1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough: In a medium saucepan, combine the water, butter, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil.

    Add Flour: Remove from heat and quickly stir in the flour until a dough forms. Return to low heat, stirring continuously until the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan (about 1-2 minutes).

      Incorporate Eggs: Remove the dough from heat and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until smooth.

        Heat the Oil: In a deep frying pan, pour in enough vegetable oil for frying (about 2 inches deep). Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).

          Fry the Dough: Use a pastry bag fitted with a star tip to pipe small balls of dough into the hot oil (about the size of a golf ball). Fry in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

            Coat with Sugar: In a bowl, mix the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar with ground cinnamon. While the churro poppers are still warm, roll them in the sugar mixture.

              Serve: Arrange the churro poppers on a serving platter. You can serve them with a side of melted chocolate or caramel sauce for dipping.
