Cinnamon Churros Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in flour until mixture forms a ball.
• Heat oil for frying in a deep fryer or deep pot to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Pipe 5- to 6-inch strips of dough into the hot oil using a sturdy pastry bag fitted with a medium star tip. Do not overcrowd the oil. Fry until golden; drain on paper towels.
• Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Roll drained churros in cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Steps:

• Mix 3/4 cup sugar and 1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon in medium bowl. Combine COOL WHIP and remaining cinnamon; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Bring water, butter and remaining sugar to boil in medium saucepan on medium-high heat. Stir in flour; cook on low heat 1 min. or until mixture forms a ball, stirring constantly with wooden spoon. Transfer to medium bowl. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating with mixer after each until blended. Add sour cream; mix well.
• Heat oil in large saucepan to 350ºF. Spoon dough into heavy-weight pastry bag fitted with medium-star tip. (Or, spoon into a cake decorator's tube fitted with star tip.) Carefully squeeze 3 or 4 (4-inch-long) strips of dough into hot oil; cook 2 to 3 min. or until golden brown on both sides, turning after 1 min. Remove from oil with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Roll in cinnamon sugar while still warm. Serve with COOL WHIP mixture.

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet, heat 1-inch of oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the baking mix and 1/4 cup sugar and whisk until combined. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth. Put the batter into a pastry bag (or plastic storage bag) fitted with a small star tip.
• Mix together the 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon and set aside.
• Working in batches, pipe the dough in a long strip into the hot oil. Fry, turning them once, until they are golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on a sheet tray lined with a brown paper bag or paper towels. Sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon mixture and transfer to a serving platter. Serve warm with chocolate syrup.
• In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the shortening with a pastry knife or fork until the mixture is well blended. Use in recipes that call for Bisquick or all-purpose mix.

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or countertop fryer using a high heat thermometer, bring the canola oil to 375 degrees F.
• For the chocolate sauce: Bring a double broiler to a simmer over medium-low heat. Carefully melt the chocolate. Remove from the heat. With a wooden spoon or heat resistant spatula, stir in the heavy cream until the sauce is smooth. Set aside.
• For the churros: Set a large saucepot over medium heat. Add 1 cup water, the butter, sugar and salt. Bring to 155 degrees F, then dump in the flour and stir with a wooden spoon to incorporate and remove lumps, about 1 minute.
• Using the spoon, add the eggs into the batter one at a time, beating after each addition, until fully incorporated. Spoon the batter into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and carefully pipe into the heated oil, forming 6-inch strips or free form shapes. Do not overcrowd the pot. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, turning once as the underside browns. Remove with a spider or slotted spoon and drain on paper-towel-lined sheet tray or plate.
• To finish: Working quickly, combine the sugar and cinnamon together in a large mixing bowl. Gently add the hot churros, tossing to coat. Serve with the chocolate dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a jug, add the butter and vanilla to 100ml boiling water. Stir until the butter has melted.
• Put the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the centre. Pour in the butter liquid and beat until smooth.
• Fit a piping bag with a star nozzle and fold down the edges of the bag. Fill with the batter.
• Line a baking tray and pipe on palm sized heart shapes. Pinch the ends together with wet fingers.
• Put in the freezer for 15-20 minutes, until firm.
• In a bowl, stir together the spices and 2tbsp of the sugar and set aside.
• In a large deep pan, heat the oil to 180c or until it sizzles when tested with a small piece of bread.
• Cook 2 churros at a time for 3-4 mins until golden brown, turning occasionally. Test the oil is hot enough between batches.
• Drain the churros on a plate lined with kitchen roll before tossing in the sugar and spice mixture.
• To make the raspberry sauce, cook the raspberries with the rest of the sugar in a small pan until soft. Mash with a fork and stir in the chambord. Pour into a small bowl to serve (sieve beforehand if you like).
• To make the chocolate sauce, break the dark chocolate into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for up to 1 min to melt, stirring every 20 seconds. Pour in the cream and leave to sit for 1 minute Stir until melted and thick. Pour into a bowl to serve.
