What better way to celebrate summer than with Churros?!

They are a surprisingly quick and easy treat to make and of course, I make mine bite-sized.  YUM!

All you need is flour, sugar, cinnamon, water, and a pinch of salt.  You can bake them if you want to go the healthy route, but I just fried ’em  – totally kept it authentic.

 

          

Also a couple of tips:

1) Use a cloth pastry bag because Churro dough is very thick and a plastic pastry bag will probably rip apart. (Side note: your arms will feel noodle-y if you try to make about 40 Churros at once.  It’s a lot of work to squeeze dough out of a pastry bag!)

2) If you want to go all out and get the textured lines then you can use a large star pastry tip.
