Delight in these crispy, golden sourdough churro bites coated with cinnamon sugar—a perfect bite-sized treat combining tangy sourdough with classic churro flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough starter discard
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon (for coating)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine sourdough starter discard, flour, water, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Stir until a smooth dough forms.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy skillet to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Using a small spoon or your hands, shape the dough into bite-sized balls.
  4. Carefully drop the dough balls into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding.
  5. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking.
  6. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  7. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Roll the warm churro bites in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy your cinnamon sugar sourdough churro bites!

Notes

For an extra indulgence, serve with a side of chocolate or caramel dipping sauce.
