1 1/2CUPS all purpose flour 1/2CUP butter or margarine 1CUP water pinch of Salt 2TSP Sugar 1 Egg Oil , for frying Sugar/Cinnamon for Coating
Place water, butter, sugar & a pinch of salt into a sauce pan. Bring to the boil.
Add the flour and mix until well incorporated, takes a minute or two.
Remove from the stove and let it cool for a minute. Once it has cooled a little, add the egg and mix the egg into the dough. Try to do it as quickly as possible. It may look like the churro dough doesn’t wanna come together but it will. Lucky is supervising. He’s good at that.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan to about 350F. Fill a piping bag fitted with star piping tip with half of the dough, it is easier to do with half the dough as I find it heavy. When oil is ready pipe dough into oil, I use my finger to stop the dough but you can use a utensil of you want. I pipe hearts into oil and fingers and pigs tails my kids call them hehehe. They only take about 2 minutes in oil. Flipping them til nicely browned.
Lay out on paper towel when done to remove excess oil. Then roll them in a sugar cinnamon coating. Lucky saids how you doing up there mom?We also made a chocolate gravy to go with them. These were awesome. Devoured fast!
