Baked Churros
- 1 cup Water
- 5 Tablespoons Spectrum Coconut Spread
- 1- 3/4 cup All Purpose Gluten Free Bob's Red Mill Flour
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 whole Organic Egg, Beaten
- 2 Tablespoons Vanilla Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 3 Tablespoons Dairy Free Coffee Creamer
- Bring coconut spread and water to a boil in a medium saucepan on high.
- Once it boils take pan off the heat and add flour, baking powder and salt.
- Then beat in the egg with a handheld mixer-dough attachment.
- Place a sheet of un-greased parchment on a baking sheet and preheat oven to 425 F.
- Split dough into about 20 evenly sized sections.
- Roll dough by hand into straw shapes and place on cookie sheet.
- Bake until puffed, about 8 minutes.
- Then remove the pan from the oven and carefully slide thee parchment paper out from under the churros (parchment will burn).
- Turn the oven to broil.
- When its pre-heated return churros to the oven and broil 3-4 minutes or until golden.
- Then remove them from the oven.
- Churros are traditionally sprinkled with sugar/cinnamon but because these are baked, the sugar wont stick.
- So I created a dip of vanilla sugar, cinnamon and enough dairy free coffee creamer (such as Baileys Irish Creme) to create a sweet dip for these lovelies.
- Powdered sugar and cinnamon might work fine but the dip was more fun.
