Disney Released Its Churro Recipe, So You Can Now Bring a Sweet Piece of the Park to You
by Kelsey GarciaLittle else can compare to enjoying a churro with a view of Cinderella's Castle in the background. But since we can't be at the parks all the time (a legit dream of ours), Disney is helping make at least one part attainable by sharing its fairly accessible nine-step churro bites recipe.
A post recently shared to the Disney Parks Blog breaks down all the ingredients and steps that go into re-creating the doughy dessert at home. If you're one of the many who have taken up baking recently, you'll also be pleased to know that most of the ingredients are simple items you probably already have in your pantry. Check it all out below!
Ingredients
- 1 cup water 8 tablespoons butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 3 eggs 1 1/2 cups vegetable or canola oil 1/2 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
Directions
- Combine water, butter, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Bring pot to rolling boil.
