Churros Poppers are the perfect treat with their fried dough and cinnamon sugar coating! This recipe is quick and easy to make with ingredients you probably have on hand!
Churros Easy Recipe
Sometimes, I get the weirdest cravings. The other day, I really wanted something with cinnamon, and the idea of churros came to mind. So I thought it would be fun to do a poppable version – because why not?! 😍
These Churros Poppers are so quick and easy to make! But, I will warn you, one batch of these cinnamony nuggets may not be enough. Seriously, you’ll want to eat the entire batch by yourself! It’s easy to double or triple if necessary – and if you run out during game time or a party, it’s a cinch to whip up another batch!
A cookie scoop helps keep the poppers in uniform size, but you could also use a rounded measuring spoon. It also helped me roll these while they were still a bit warm!
Get your stretchy pants out – I betcha can’t stop at one or two!
➡️ What do churros taste like?
Think of a fluffy doughnut (in this case doughnut hole) with a cinnamon-sugar coating.
➡️ Are churros vegan?
Yes, they are! Churros are so simple to make and only require a handful of ingredients – sugar, cinnamon, flour, water, salt, and oil.
➡️ Why are my churros dought/raw inside?
If your churros are coming out raw or doughy, try frying them for a little longer. If they are dark and still raw, then your oil temperature may be too high or you may need to make smaller poppers to ensure they cook all of the way through.
➡️ Can I reheat churros poppers?
You sure can! If you are making these ahead, I suggest not coating them until after they are reheated – they’ll be just as perfect as if you had made them from start to finish without freezing.
TO REHEAT: Bake the churros poppers in a 400°F oven for 3-6 minutes or until heated through.
Recipe Tips
- While these little treats rock on their own, you can dip them into chocolate sauce, melted Nutella, caramel sauce, or dulce de leche for even more awesomeness!
- A cookie scoop helps keep the poppers in uniform size, but you could also use a rounded measuring spoon.
- When rolling these, you want a gentle roll – just enough to form a ball.
