Fluffy Air Fryer Churro Bites

Print Recipe

Delicious and fluffy churro bites made in an air fryer, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfect for sharing.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup sugar for coating
  • Oil spray for air frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, butter, sugar, and salt. Stir until the butter melts and the mixture begins to bubble.
  2. Mix in the dry ingredients: Stir in the flour and baking powder using a wooden spoon until it forms a cohesive ball.
  3. Knead the dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it gently until it holds together.
  4. Shape the bites: Pinch off small pieces of dough and roll them into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  5. Air fry: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C), then place a batch of churro bites in the fryer basket and spray them lightly with oil.
  6. Cook to perfection: Air fry the churro bites for about 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
  7. Coat with sugar and cinnamon: In a separate bowl, mix the 1/4 cup of sugar with cinnamon and roll the warm churro bites in the mixture.

Notes

Serve warm with melted chocolate or dulce de leche for dipping. You can customize with different spices or fillings.
