ingredients

For the Churro Masa

  • 100 grams (1/2 cup) butter
  • 75 grams (3/8 cup brown sugar
  • 250 grams (1 cup) water
  • 200 grams (3/4 cup) flour
  • 200 grams (3/4 cup) sourdough starter or discard
  • 6 grams (1.25 teaspoons) salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg

ingredients

For the Chocolate Sauce

  • 200 grams (1 cup plus 2 tablespoons) dark chocolate
  • 200 grams (1 cup plus 2 tablespoons) coconut milk or heavy cream

Method

  • Step 1

    Combine the butter, water, vanilla and sugar into a sauce pan on medium heat. Let it heat up until it is almost boiling, while stirring.

  • Step 2

    Once at a boiling point, remove from heat and add the flour and salt into the pan. Mix thoroughly until it turns into a cohesive dough. Let this mixture cool for 15 minutes.

  • Step 3

    While the mixture is cooling, heat up a pan or pot of canola oil. You don't want it too hot. If you have a thermometer, between 350-375°F should be just fine.

  • Step 4

    Put the masa into the bowl of a stand mixer and add the egg and sourdough starter. Use the paddle attachment to incorporate and mix until you have a smooth, thick batter. If you don't have a hand mixer, you can do this by hand, just make sure the mixture has cooled!

  • Step 5

    If you have a piping bag, great. Add your masa into the piping bag, preferably with a star tip. If you don't have a piping bag, put your mixture into a ziplock back and cut the corner slightly. You don't want to cut too big or you'll end up with uncooked blobs.

  • Step 6

    Once the oil is heated, pipe your churros into the oil about 4 at a time depending on your pot size. Use scissors or your hand to cut the dough into the oil.

  • Step 7

    Fry the churros for 5-6 minutes, turning with tongs if needed to evenly cook them.

  • Step 8

    Make your chocolate dipping sauce while your churros cook by putting the dark chocolate and coconut milk/heavy cream into a microwave safe bowl an heat up for 2-3 minutes. Stir with a whisk when you take it out and let it cool.

  • Step 9

    Fill a bowl with a cinnamon sugar mixture. When the churros are done cooking, toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat them.

  • Step 10

    Finally, dip your churros in chocolate. Enjoy!
