Ingredients:

1 cup water
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cooking spray
1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
1 tsp ground cinnamon (for coating)

Instructions:

Prepare the Dough:
In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low and add the flour all at once. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the pan from heat and let the dough cool for 5 minutes.
Add Eggs and Vanilla:
After the dough has cooled slightly, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and shiny.
Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
Pipe the Churros:
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
Pipe 4-5 inch long churros onto parchment paper, cutting the dough with scissors as you go.
Lightly spray the churros with cooking spray.
Air Fry the Churros:
Place the churros in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching each other. You may need to work in batches.
Air fry the churros for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Coat the Churros:
In a shallow dish, mix together the 1/2 cup of sugar and ground cinnamon.
While the churros are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.
Serve:
Serve the churros warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as chocolate or caramel sauce.

Tips:

Make sure to allow the dough to cool slightly before adding the eggs, to prevent the eggs from cooking.
For a more decadent treat, serve with melted chocolate, dulce de leche, or a simple glaze.
