- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- Coating is used for
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- In order to Serve
- Chocolate sauce
- Sauce de caramel
Instructions
- Pre-heat your air fryer to 375 degrees before beginning.
- To begin making your churro dough, cut the butter into tablespoon-sized pieces. Then, at that point, add it to a medium-sized pan alongside the water, milk, and sugar.
- Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently.
- Mix in the flour after taking the saucepan off the heat. Using a wooden spoon is the easiest way to ensure that it is fully incorporated!
- Return the saucepan to the heat and continue stirring for approximately 2 minutes, or until the mixture forms a smooth ball.
- Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl after removing the saucepan from the heat once more.
- Beat the dough for a few minutes with an electric mixer to remove some heat.
- Whisk the eggs and the vanilla together in a small bowl.
- Using the electric mixer, beat the dough after each addition of the egg mixture to the dough. To ensure that everything is incorporated, scrape the bowl!
- Add an open star decorating tip (#1M) to a pastry bag. Be careful not to overfill the pastry bag with the dough.
- Pipe the dough directly into the air fryer basket with kitchen scissors, cutting it into approximately 3-inch lengths.
- The churros should be golden brown when cooked in the preheated air fryer for 6 to 8 minutes.
- You can prepare your topping by combining the sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl while they cook.
- After the churros have finished cooking in the air fryer, immediately add them to the cinnamon and sugar mixture to fully coat them.
- To allow the churros to cool, transfer them to a baking rack.
- Serve your delicious churros topped with caramel or chocolate sauce.
