Churros

EverydayCookedSweetened

Churros are a fried dough pastry originating from Spanish and Portuguese cuisine, characterized by their ridged surface from being piped through a star-shaped nozzle. The deep-fried sticks develop a crisp exterior with a soft, airy interior, traditionally rolled in cinnamon sugar for a sweet finish. While beloved as a street food snack or dessert accompaniment to hot chocolate, their preparation method makes them high in carbohydrates and fats with minimal protein content.
