Ingredients
Scale
- For the Dough:
- 1 cup Water
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
- Vegetable Oil for frying
- For the Dipping Sauce:
- 1 jar Nutella
Instructions
- Prepare Nutella Dip: Warm the Nutella in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-30 seconds until soft and pourable. Set aside.
- Make Dough: In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, salt, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in flour until a smooth dough forms. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Incorporate Eggs: Add eggs one at a time to the cooled dough, mixing well after each addition until smooth and cohesive.
- Prepare Cinnamon Sugar: Mix 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
- Fry Churros: Heat vegetable oil to 350°F in a deep skillet. Pipe 4-6 inch strips of dough into the hot oil, cutting with scissors. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden-brown.
- Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: Remove churro bites from oil with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels. While warm, roll each bite in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Serve: Place Nutty Churro Bites on a platter and serve warm with the melted Nutella dip.
Notes
- Maintain oil temperature at 350°F for optimal frying.
- Roll churros in cinnamon sugar while still warm for better adherence.
