Items needed to answer the question, How do I make vegan churros. Items include: all-purpose flour sugar baking powder salt plant-based milk vegan butter vanilla extract vegetable oil cinnamon

all-purpose flour 1 cup
sugar 2 tablespoons
baking powder 1 teaspoon
salt pinch
plant-based milk 1 cup
vegan butter 2 tablespoons
vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
vegetable oil enough for frying
cinnamon 1 tablespoon

Take note
Be careful with hot oil and make sure to handle it safely. Keep an eye on the churros while frying to prevent burning.

1

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly combined.

2

Add Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of plant-based milk, 2 tablespoons of melted vegan butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.

3

Prepare for Frying

Fill a large pot or deep frying pan with vegetable oil, about 2 inches deep. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Prepare a plate lined with paper towels nearby for draining the cooked churros.

4

Pipe the Churro Dough

Transfer the churro batter into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. This will give your churros those classic ridges. If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off.

5

Fry the Churros

Slowly pipe 4-6 inch strips of dough into the hot oil, cutting them off with a pair of scissors. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the churros for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Flip them with tongs to ensure even cooking.

6

Coat with Cinnamon Sugar

While the churros are still hot, roll them in a mixture of ½ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon. Make sure to coat them evenly for that irresistible cinnamon-sugar flavor.

7

Serve and Enjoy

Place the coated churros on the paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil. Serve them warm and enjoy them as they are or dip them in your favorite vegan chocolate sauce. Get ready for pure churro bliss!
