Churros (Crullers)
List of Ingredients
Makes about 4 Dozen Crullers
Vegetable Oil for Frying
2 1/4 cups Flour
1 Tablespoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 large Eggs
2/3 cups Granulated Sugar
3/4 cup Milk
2 Tablespoon Butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
powdered sugar for dusting Recipe
Pour vegetable oil into a heavy skillet or electric frypan to a depth of 2 inches, and heat to 375 degrees. While the oil is warming, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until thick and lemon-colored. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk. Stir in the melted butter and the vanilla.
Fit a pastry tube with a large star tip. Fill the pastry tube with the dough. Squeeze the dough carefully into the hot oil in 6-inch lengths, cutting off the end of each length with a knife, if necessary.
Fry the crullers until golden brown, about 90 seconds on each side. Remove the hot crullers from the oil with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels.
Just before serving the warm, sweet fried dough, sprinkle the crullers with a dusting of confectioners' sugar.
