Making Disney-Style Churros at Home
Hello, hello! Today Anthony and I are making Disney-style churros from the official Disney recipe. That’s right, you get to appreciate the goodness that is the cinnamon sugar-covered fried dessert right from the comfort of your home. We’ve made it super simple to follow along with this recipe in the video or even just through our blog post here. So, enjoy the Disney magic with us—food-style!
Guess what… I’m even going to post the recipe right here so that you don’t have to scroll for a million years. That’s how much we love you guys!
The Disney Churros Recipe
Ingredients
1 cup water
8 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon divided
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 ½ cups vegetable or canola oil
½ cup sugar
Instructions
Combine water, butter, salt, and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon in 1 ½-quart saucepan over medium heat. Bring pot to rolling boil. Reduce heat to low.
Add flour and stir vigorously until mix forms a ball. Remove from heat and let rest for 5-7 min.
Add eggs, one at a time, and stir until combined. Set aside.
Heat oil in medium skillet or 1-quart saucepan over medium-high heat or until temperature reaches 350˚F.
Spoon dough into piping bag fitted with large star tip. Pipe 1-inch strip of dough over saucepan, cut with knife, and drop into hot oil. Repeat until churro bites fill saucepan with room to fry.
Fry churro bites until golden brown. Remove with slotted spoon or mesh spider strainer.
Drain churro bites on paper towel.
Mix sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon in medium bowl. Toss in churro bites until coated. Place on serving plate and serve with favorite dipping sauce.
Super simple, friends! We took about 30-40 minutes on this (and that’s with filming)! So, you can have this as a fun, quick snack to enjoy as a couple or an entertaining and bonding family activity. Either way, enjoy them and let us know what you think. We certainly loved them and even got to share the results with some friends!
We did do another cooking video like this for yet another famous Disney parks recipe—the Mickey Beignets! And just like these churros, those were to die for! Like, melt-in-your-mouth, never-want-to-stop-eating level of yumminess.
