About

Churros are a long doughy bread stick, deep fried to a golden brown, and glazed with a sugar and cinnamon coating. Growing up, we never ate churros at home, but they were definitely a hometown favorite at church bazaars, festivals, mercados (markets), taquerias (taco stands), and even amusement parks. They are best when still warm and dipped in this delicious warm thick Mexican chocolate sauce.

It’s a tough competition (up against waffles and American pancakes) but I think these churros win out as all time favourite indulgent breakfast. Worth investing in a stainless steel churros maker to get perfectly piped churros.
