Baked Churros:

ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/3 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, or dark
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted, for brushing

For S'mores

ingredients

  • Ghirardelli Chocolate SQUARES
  • marshmallows

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375F. In a saucepan on medium-high heat, bring the water, vanilla extract, salt, unsalted butter, brown sugar, honey, and cinnamon to a boil.

  • Step 2

    As soon as the mixture starts to boil, remove from heat and mix in the flour.

  • Step 3

    Crack and whisk eggs in a separate bowl. Add whisked eggs in 1/3rd at a time to the batter. Mix until smooth. (It will look a little runny, but just keep mixing it will combine & be smooth).

  • Step 4

    Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat (or wax paper). Place the lined baking sheet on top of another baking sheet. This will help the baked churros cook evenly without burning the bottom.

  • Step 5

    Place a 1M or 2D piping tip into your piping bag. Add batter to the piping bag and pipe golf ball size circles. (You can pipe 4-6 inch lines if you don’t want to make them all into s’mores!) Pipe the remaining batter.

  • Step 6

    Place churros into the oven for 28-32 minutes or until golden brown. I turn off the oven at minute 28 and let it sit in there for about 5-10 minutes or until they look a little crispy on the edges. (You can certainly fry the batter as well!)

  • Step 7

    Remove from oven and coat a thin layer of melted butter and dip them in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve immediately if you are not making s’mores with them!

  • Step 8

    For S’mores: Add chocolate square and marshmallow on top of a churro. Broil until marshmallow is toasted and add another churro on top! Serve immediately!
