Preparation Steps

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, sugar, butter, and salt.
• Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Add flour and stir with a wooden spoon until thickened and no lumps remain.
• Transfer dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
• Heat oil in a large pot or deep electric fryer over medium heat until it reaches 375°F.
• Pipe strips of dough over the oil and fry until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes per side.
• Remove churros with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Toss warm churros in a cinnamon-sugar mixture and serve immediately.
