Vegan Gluten-Free Baked Churros
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free all purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Cinnamon coating
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Preparation
Preheat oven to 200C.
In a medium saucepan, add water, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and coconut oil. Place over medium-high heat and heat until the mixture starts to simmer. Remove pan from heat, whisk in the flour until there are no flour lumps and a dough ball has formed, using a wooden spoon.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. Pipe dough into long churro shapes, leaving about 2 inches of space between them. Brush churros with coconut oil.
Bake for around 30 minutes or until golden brown. If the churros are still soft, continue to bake. Then turn off the oven and leave churros in there for 10 minutes to dry a little.
Combine sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Take the churros straight from the oven and toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well covered. Serve warm with chocolate.
