6 servings

Ingredients

⅛ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Cinnamon
3 Eggs
3 cups (about) cooking oil for frying
1 cup Water
5 tablespoons Butter or margarine
Confectioner's sugar, if desired

Directions

"Here's a recipe from a local Mexican resturant, called Listas, that I use to frequent." - Anne Nicol Sift together the flour and cinnamon. Heat oil (1 inch in depth) in large heavy skillet to medium-high(375 degree). In a medium heavy saucepan, bring water to a boil over high heat; add butter and salt, allowing butter to melt. Remove from heat. Add dry ingredients; mixing well with whisk. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking well.

Spoon into a pastry or piping bag, fitted with star shaped tip.

Squeeze batter in a straight line into hot oil, making each churro about 6 inches in length. Fry until churros are golden brown, about 3 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain well on paper towels and sift confectioners' sugar over churros. Serve warm.
