Storage Tips
Storing your churro bites properly is essential to maintaining their crispiness and flavor. If you’re making them ahead of time, let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature. When you’re ready to eat, you can reheat them in the oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes.
Serving Ideas
Churro bites are incredibly versatile. You can serve them on their own or with a variety of dipping sauces like chocolate, caramel, or even a nice fruit compote. For an extra indulgent experience, pair them with a warm cup of hot chocolate or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. They’re perfect for sharing with friends and family during your Black Friday celebrations.
Easy Black Friday Churro Bite Recipe
Equipment
- Medium saucepan
- Wooden spoon
- Mixing bowl
- Piping bag with large star tip
- Heavy-bottomed pot
- Slotted spoon
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Paper towels
Ingredients
- 1 cup of water
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1 cup granulated sugar for coating
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon for coating
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine water, unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Add Flour: Once boiling, add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the saucepan.
- Cool and Add Eggs: Remove the pan from the heat. Let the dough cool for about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Pipe the Dough: Spoon the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 1-inch pieces of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Fry the Churro Bites: Use a knife or scissors to cut the dough into the hot oil. Fry the churro bites in batches, turning them occasionally until they are golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per batch).
- Drain and Coat: Use a slotted spoon to remove churro bites from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. While still warm, roll the churro bites in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.
