Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, salt, and vegetable oil. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and stir in the flour until the dough forms a ball.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated. The dough should be smooth and sticky.
-
Fill a piping bag fitted with a star tip with the churro dough. Pipe 4-inch strips of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You can also use a plastic storage bag with a corner cut off if you don't have a piping bag.
-
In a shallow dish, mix the crushed Ritz Bits crackers with sugar and cinnamon. Roll each churro in the cracker mixture until evenly coated.
-
Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry the coated churros in batches for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to carefully transfer the churros to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
-
Serve the warm Ritz Bits Churros on a platter and sprinkle any remaining cracker mixture on top for an extra crunch. Enjoy fresh and warm.
