Do you like churros? Me too, I love it!
It's hard not to fall in love with these delicious Spanish donuts...
It's the kind of delicacy that you eat without hunger at fairgrounds.
So how about making your own churros at home?
Don't worry, this recipe is super easy and you don't even need a machine!
Here is the delicious recipe for churros filled with homemade Nutella that the whole family will love. Watch:
- powdered sugar (115 g + 1½ tablespoon)
- ground cinnamon (1½ teaspoon)
- water (250ml)
- salt (½ teaspoon)
- vegetable oil
- all-purpose flour (115 gr)
- Homemade Nutella (see the homemade recipe here) or another spread
- pastry bag
- kitchen scissors
1. In a bowl, mix the 115 g of sugar and the cinnamon and set aside.
2. Prepare a plate lined with paper towels and set aside.
3. In a small saucepan, use a whisk to whisk together the water, sugar (1½ tbsp), salt (½ tsp) and 2 tbsp vegetable oil.
4. Bring this mixture to a boil over medium heat, then remove from the heat.
5. Add the flour and continue mixing until you have a nice ball of churros dough.
6. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 8-10cm of vegetable oil over medium heat, until it reaches 190ºC.
7. Put some dough in a pastry bag, with a star-shaped tip.
8. Press the dough over the hot oil and cut pieces of about 10 cm with scissors.
9. Press about 3 or 4 churros at a time into the hot oil and fry them, until golden brown and crispy.
10. Put the churros on the plate covered with paper towel for 2 min, to drain the excess oil.
11. Roll the churros in the sugar-cinnamon mixture.
12. Bake the rest of the batter, repeating steps 7-11 (baking and sprinkling).
13. Put Nutella in each churro, until they are well filled.
14. To stuff the churros, use a pocket with a filling nozzle, taking care to fill the churros from both ends.
There you go, your homemade churros filled with Nutella are already ready :-)
