Baked Churros

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup butter
1 cup flour
2 eggs
1-1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
2 tablespoons  fine turbinado sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or more)

Melt butter in a saucepan. Add brown sugar, salt, and water. Bring to simmer and remove from heat. Add flour and stir until smooth.

Meanwhile, whisk eggs and vanilla together. Add dough to the eggs and beat until dough is smooth.

Immediately spoon dough into a pastry bag with a large star tip and pipe into desired shapes on parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Bake at 425 for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.

While churros are baking, toss sugars and cinnamon together. When churros come out of the oven, immediately toss them in the cinnamon sugar to coat, brushing with butter or coconut oil as needed.

  2. I get it from the baking supply section at Michael's. I never use vanilla extract anymore, this stuff is way better!
