Étapes

Make the dough

Bring the water, butter, 1 tablespoon of sugar and the salt to a boil in a saucepan. Take off the heat, add all the flour at once and stir hard with a wooden spoon until it forms a smooth ball that comes away from the pan.

Add the egg

Let the dough cool for 5 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until the dough is smooth, glossy and thick. Spoon it into a piping bag fitted with a large open star nozzle.

History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Spain, adopted by Mexico City📅 Colonial era, popular since the 1930s🍩 MX

Churros came to Mexico from Spain, where they are eaten for breakfast with thick hot chocolate. In Mexico they became a beloved sweet snack, sold hot from street carts and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.

Mexico City's El Moro churrería has been frying them around the clock since 1935, and Mexico added its own twists, like churros filled with cajeta (goat's milk caramel).

⭐ Why It's Famous

Crunchy outside, soft inside and dipped in rich chocolate: few treats are so simple and so satisfying.

💡 Fun Fact

The ridges from the star nozzle aren't just for looks: they help the churro cook evenly and stay crisp.
