Easy Air Fryer Churros
These air fryer churros are super easy to make and is perfect with a chocolate sauce for dipping!
Ingredients
- ½ + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- ¼ tsp salt
- Caramel sauce, optional
- Chocolate sauce, optional
Instructions
- In a medium size pot, add your water, salt, and butter. Bring heat to medium and keep stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the butter is melted. Once melted reduce heat to low.
- Add your flour and keep stirring, to keep the dough smooth, for about 3-5 minutes.
- Add in your eggs one at the time, and make sure to immediately mix them in well. Remove from heat when the dough is smooth and thickened.
- Put your piping bag in a glass, with the tip folded up, and add your dough to the piping bag. I used a larger churros tip.
- Depending on the size of your air fryer, you might have to work in batches. Use a cooking spray to avoid sticking. Pipe and cut about 8 pieces of churros into your air fryer tray, make sure they have enough space in between. You can make them as long as you wish. I made mine about 1-2 inches long.
- Cook the churros for 6-8 minutes (depending on the thickness of your churros) on 370 degrees Fahrenheit. And repeat until you’re out of dough.
- While your churros are cooking, mix your cinnamon and sugar into a bowl (large enough for your churros)
