Easy churros - Real Recipes from Mums

These churros will be an instant delight with the family. Add a little chocolate dipping sauce to entice those tastebuds. Adjust sugar content to suit your taste. If you have no piping bag just get a ziplock bag and cut a small hole.

Ingredients (makes 12 Churros)

1 cup Water
1 cup Plain flour
2 1/2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Tbsp Vegetable oil (plus oil for deep frying)
1/2 cup Sugar to taste
1 tsp Cinnamon

Method

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in flour until mixture forms a ball.
Heat oil for frying in deep-fryer or deep skillet to 190 degrees C. Pipe strips of dough into hot oil using a pastry bag. Fry until golden; drain on paper towel.
Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Roll drained churros in cinnamon and sugar mixture.

How simple are these g always imagined then t my ad super fiddly and to much effort to be bothered. I have fingers crossed they work with gluten free flour.
