Instructions

1- Prepare the Dough:

• In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Once it begins boiling, reduce the heat to low. Add the flour, mixing vigorously until the mixture forms a ball.

• Spoon the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip Ateco Large Star Pastry Tip.
• Pipe 6-inch lengths of dough directly into the hot oil. Fry 4 to 5 churros at a time, turning them as needed until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes).
• Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel.

3- Coat and Fill the Churros:

• In a shallow dish, mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
• Roll each churro in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat evenly.
