Ingredients
  

  • 0.5 cups Water
  • 0.5 cups Whole Milk
  • 8 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Granulated Sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 4 large Eggs, cold
  • 0.5 cups Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Vegetable Oil or Canola Oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine water, milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  • Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in the flour all at once with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring constantly, to release moisture.
  • Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes to cool it down.
  • Add eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Beat until the dough is smooth and shiny.
  • Heat oil to 370°F in a deep pan.
  • Pipe the dough into 6-inch lengths directly into the hot oil, cutting to separate. Fry for 1.5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  • Transfer the cooked churros to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • While they're still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Notes

  • Adjust the cinnamon sugar ratio to your liking for a personal touch.
  • Pair with chocolate sauce or ice cream for a delightful dessert experience.
