Churro recipe: frying the churro

If you do not have a tabletop fryer (These are very cheap, and worth the investment for the home cook), heat a pot of canola or vegetable oil to 325 degrees F.

Depending on your pot size, this will have varying amounts of oil. All in all, There should be enough oil to submerge the churro dough while frying.

First, place into a piping bag with a tip, or tipless. You can create a makeshift piping bag out of a plastic ziplock bag.

Cut a hole in the bag for your desired thickness. The thicker the churro, the longer the cooking time. We prefer our churros around an inch thick.

Next, Pipe the dough into the hot frying oil and gently baste the churros with a spoon. Do this by using the hot oil and spooning it over the top of the exposed churro dough.

Flip after 3 minutes and continue. Finally, remove once the churros are a nice caramel brown color.

Remove and place on a paper towel to soak up the excess oil. In a separate bowl, quickly mix 1/4 cup of sugar with a few pinches of cinnamon.
