Caramel-Filled Churros

Churros are super delicious and easy Latin sweet pastries. You can fill them with caramel, as we did in this recipe. Give them a try.

Ingredients

Start here, then move straight into the method.

  • 1 cup water (240 ml)
  • 1 cup flour
  • 110 g butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Liquid caramel for filling
  • Powdered sugar for decoration
  • Click the link to make Dried Fruit Cake
  • From Rania as well, here is Hala Bat Ashu
  • For more delicious pastries, here is the recipe for Easy Croissant

Method

Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.

  1. In a saucepan, while cold, add the water, butter, sugar, salt, and flour and stir.
  2. Turn on the heat and let them warm up, stirring constantly, until a dough forms.
  3. Turn off the heat and let the dough cool slightly, then start adding the eggs one at a time, whisking well until you have a sticky dough.
  4. Put the dough in a piping bag and shape the churros into cookie-stick shapes or circles, then place the pieces directly on a tray.
  5. Place the tray in the refrigerator for a while to firm up the pieces.
  6. Heat plenty of oil and place the pieces directly from the refrigerator into the hot oil until they turn lightly golden.
  7. Remove the churros from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb the oil.
  8. When the pieces have cooled, fill them with caramel in any way you like. You can use a piping bag.
  9. Serve caramel-filled churros dusted with powdered sugar.
