Take note
Be careful while working with hot oil to avoid any burns. Also, make sure to let the churros cool slightly before biting into them to avoid burning your tongue with the delicious filling.

1

Prepare the Churro Batter

In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon sugar, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, reduce the heat to low and add 1 cup all-purpose flour. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a smooth dough and pulls away from the sides of the pan.

2

Fill the Churros with Deliciousness

Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 375°F (190°C). Pipe strips of churro dough directly into the hot oil, using scissors to cut them into 4 to 5-inch long pieces. Fry the churros until they turn golden brown and crispy. Once cooked, remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon and allow them to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

3

Add the Filling of Your Choice

Once the churros have cooled slightly, use a skewer or piping bag to create a small hole in the center of each churro. Fill a separate piping bag with your favorite filling, such as Nutella or dulce de leche. Insert the tip of the piping bag into the hole and gently squeeze to fill the churro with a burst of flavor. Repeat this process with all the churros.

4

Serve and Enjoy

Arrange the filled churros on a serving platter and sprinkle them with a dusting of powdered sugar. Grab your friends or family and prepare to be blown away by the amazing combination of crispiness, fluffiness, and gooey filling. These filled churros are best enjoyed fresh and warm!
