Easiest Baked Churros {Made with Puff Pastry}

 

 

My baked churros are so easy to make and require no frying! Flaky, tender baked churros taste just as good as a fried churro but are healthier and easier to make and you don’t have to worry about frying in hot oil!

I have no want to fry anything during the Texas summer months. Bring on the baked goods.

 

Easiest Baked Churros

 

This is not a traditional churro recipe, but my easy baked churros made with puff pastry bake up just as good and are way easier than the traditional churro recipe.

Once baked, they are brushed with vanilla butter then dusted with cinnamon sugar. You will never know these churros aren’t fried and they’re so much easier to make!

Baking sheet

Parchment paper

Non stick cooking spray

Brushing the puff pastry with melted butter and vanilla give these bake churros the authentic taste you would get from a traditional churro recipe.

Gently simmer your butter and vanilla on low heat. Do not allow butter to boil.

You can store leftovers in an air-tight container but they will become soft.  Reheat them under the broiler for a few minutes and they will regain their former crispiness.
