Have you ever had a churro?
Like those ones that are three feet long at Costco?
Yeahh, those ones.
Have you ever tried making them at home?
I have, and sadly, I am not the best deep frier.
Hello, oil splatter, ALL. OVER. THE. DARN. KITCHEN.
I mean, seriously, oil. You had one job, and you HAD TO MESS IT UP.
As you can see, I really do not like frying.
But I love churros.
I CAN’T DECIDEEEEE.
Me yesterday when I came up with this recipe:
*Daydreaming about churros*
Hmm…. WHAT IF I BAKED THEM!?!?!
Brain high five!
*clap*
I got the weirdest headache after that.

These churros are baked instead of deep fried, and are so easy to make! These churros are so tasty, you won’t even miss the oil!
Ingredients
- 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
- 3 T flour
- ¾ c sugar
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1 stick of butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Dust your counter with the flour. Unfold the sheet of puff pastry, and roll it out until it is a rectangle that relatively is a 10×15 inch rectangle. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and brush the top with a little bit of the melted butter. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
- Mix the cinnamon and sugar together on a plate, and set aside.
- Let the puff pastry cool slightly before cutting them into long rectangles, however you cut them (I usually cut the sheet in half width-wise, and then into smaller rectangles after that, getting about 24 churros).
- Brush each churro with some of the melted butter, and then coat them in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
