Easy Baked Churros Recipes

EASY BAKED CHURROS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line three cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Place water, 1/2 cup butter (sliced into tablespoons), and salt in a large saucepan. Heat over medium heat until butter is melted and stir occasionally until mixture boils.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the flour. A thick paste will form. Make sure to do this off the heat and off the stove, so that the mixture can cool as you stir it.
• Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition (work fast to avoid cooking the eggs). It'll seem like the eggs don't want to mix in but they will.
• Place the churro batter in a large pastry bag fitted with a star or 1M tip.
• Pipe churros in desired size and shapes onto cookie sheets. (This recipe makes approximately 60 3-inch long churros or 25 7-inch long churros.
• Spray the churros with nonstick cooking spray. This will help them brown.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes (depending on size), rotating pans as needed, until churros are baked through and lightly golden.
• Cool slightly, or until you can handle them.
• Melt remaining 1/2 cup butter in a medium size bowl. Mix sugar and cinnamon in another bowl. Dip the churros in the butter then roll in cinnamon sugar. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
• To make chocolate ganache: place 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave safe cup or bowl. Heat for 1 minute, then whisk until smooth.
• To make caramel dipping sauce: place 20 unwrapped caramel squares and 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream in a microwave safe cup or bowl. Heat for 1 minute, then stir until smooth, reheating as needed. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt if desired.

BAKED CHURROS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
• Combine water, butter, brown sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and the mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat. Using a wooden spoon, stir in flour until completely incorporated and the mixture starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• Whisk eggs and vanilla in a small bowl. Add to the dough and stir until completely incorporated. Transfer the dough to a pastry bag fitted with a 3/4-inch open-star tip. (Alternatively, if using a 1-quart sealable plastic bag, fill it with dough and seal almost completely, leaving a small opening for air to escape from the top as you squeeze. Snip off a bottom corner, making a 3/4-inch-wide opening.) Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheet to make 12 churros, each 4 inches long.
• Bake the churros, turning once halfway, until puffed and browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon on a shallow plate. Roll the hot churros in the mixture and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.

EASY BAKED CHURROS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place one sheet of thawed puff pastry on a cutting board you can thaw pastry dough by placing one folded sheet in the microwave for 30 seconds, turnover and microwave for another 30 seconds*. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife cut pastry dough in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 1 inch wide strips. You should end up with 18-22 strips total.
• Place the strips of dough onto prepared baking sheet and place in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until the top is a nice golden brown color.
• While the churros are in the oven melt butter in a square or rectangle bowl in the microwave.
• In a small rectangle or square bowl mix sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
• Once churros are removed from the oven, let them cool slightly and then dip each churro into the melted butter, and immediately roll them through the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
• Place churros back on the sheet pan and let them dry. Enjoy!
