Churros Dough
Method
Preparation
Make the Churros Dough
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Pipe the Churros
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Carefully pipe the dough into hot oil, cutting it into 4-6 inch lengths with scissors.
Fry the Churros
Fry churros in batches for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Coat in Sugar
In a bowl, mix granulated sugar with ground cinnamon. While churros are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
