Who doesn’t love hot, crispy churros dusted with sugar? The problem: making churros at home often ends up with dough on the counter, oil splatters, and a whole lot of cleanup. The good news is—you can make delicious churros without the mess, right in your own kitchen. Here’s how.
Why Homemade Churros Are Worth It
Homemade churros taste fresher, you can customize the flavor (cinnamon sugar, chocolate drizzle, even filled churros), and you save money compared to buying them outside. The best part? You can make them vegan-friendly too—no eggs required—so everyone can enjoy them.
The Tools You’ll Need
-
KneadEat Churro Maker: keeps things clean while shaping perfect churros, no sticky piping bags required.
-
Deep, tall pot or air fryer: reduces oil splatter and keeps frying safe.
-
Tongs or kitchen scissors: to cut and handle churros safely.
-
Tray lined with parchment paper: to coat churros with sugar without mess.
Step-by-Step: Mess-Free Churro Making
1. Prepare the Dough
For vegan churros, skip the egg and use flour, water, a pinch of salt, and plant-based butter or oil. Place the dough inside the KneadEat Churro Maker—no messy piping bags.
2. Chill the Dough (Optional but Recommended)
For even cleaner results, place your shaped churros in the freezer for 10–15 minutes before cooking. This helps the dough firm up, making it easier to fry or air fry without sticking.
3. Shape the Churros
Press directly with the KneadEat Churro Maker over the pot or air fryer basket.
4. Fry or Air Fry
Both methods keep your churros golden and crispy, with minimal splatter.
5. Coat Without the Mess
Roll in cinnamon sugar on a parchment-lined tray—easy cleanup guaranteed.
Bonus Tip: Easy Vegan Dips
Pair with melted dark chocolate, coconut caramel, or almond butter drizzle for a plant-based treat.
