Recipe: Homemade Churros

Image
 Me and my kids love cinnamon and sugar. I thought I'd give homemade churros a try. Churros: 1 cup (125g) flour 1 cup (250mL) boiling water pinch salt 1 tsp baking powder 1 tbsp oil 1/2 cup (100g) sugar 2 tsp cinnamon more oil for deep frying Combine cinnamon and sugar in a shallow container. Set aside.  Stir flour, salt and baking powder together.  Stir in 1 tbsp oil and slowly add boiling water until mixture makes a thick, sticky dough. Don't add too much until the batter become watery.  Put the sticky dough into a piping bag with a large open star tip.  Pipe into hot oil, cutting off with scissors when long enough.  Deep fry in oil over medium high heat for about 2-3 minutes or until dough becomes golden brown. Remove from oil. Allow to drip off some oil onto a paper towel.  Transfer to a shallow container with cinnamon and sugar mixture. Toss in cinnamon sugar. These are amazing. They taste just like you buy at the fair. Watch us make this deliciou...
