On Sat, hub wanted to ask us to go San Churros to get his birthday churros but then realised that the voucher is only valid a day before, the day or the day after the "big" day. So, we headed home instead... but I still wanted churros!
At the same time, I had wanted to try it out on my air fryer for a while (no deep frying at home)... so there goes, the attempt to try out since some other people has managed to do it.
Ingredients:
- 225g water
- 113g butter
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (white if you don’t have brown)
- ¼ tsp salt
- 143g plain flour/ all purpose flour
- 3 eggs, at room temperature (I used L size)
Method:
- In a small saucepan, heat up water, butter and brown sugar till the mixture starts to have a little bubble... stir constantly to avoid burning the bottom part of the mixture. Once it starts to bubble, lower the heat and in the flour.
- Stir with a spatula or big wooden spoon till the flour is mix evenly with the mixture and starts to cuddle up into a dough. Remove the saucepan from heat immediately and still give it some stirring.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, salt and vanilla together.
- Then little by little mix into the cooked dough. Do not add too fast and mix too slow to avoid the eggs from getting cooked. Continue till the eggs are all mixed well into the dough. Set it aside to cool before putting them into the pipping bag. You may choose to use the star nozzle or just a plain big nozzle depending to how thick you want the churros to be.
- Preheat the air fryer at 180c for 2-3mins.
- Pipe the dough directly on the pan (it can be as closed as you like as it won't get any bigger than what you see). Turn the AF to 180c and bake for 8 to 10mins (check them after 8mins coz the bigger size one may take a little longer).
- If you will like to have it coated, have it coated with cinnamon sugar (combination of 1 part cinnamon to 1.5 part brown sugar). Coat it immediately once you remove it from the AF otherwise it won't stick.
Enjoy!
