Air Fryer Churros Filled With Dulce De Leche

dulce de leche

🥗Healthier: caramel sauce

💰Cheaper: sweetened condensed milk

Caramel sauce can be lighter, and sweetened condensed milk is often less expensive.

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add water, butter, brown sugar, and salt over medium-low heat until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves.

Whisk in flour until a smooth dough forms, cooking for about 2 minutes until it clumps together and cleans the bottom of the saucepan.

Remove from heat and add room temperature eggs gradually, whisking vigorously until the dough comes together and is smooth.

Prepare a piping bag with a star tip nozzle and fill it with the churro dough.

Preheat the air fryer to 325°F.

Pipe churros onto parchment paper in 4-inch lengths, making sure they are thick.

Place churros in the air fryer basket, cooking for less than 20 minutes until golden brown.

Using a knife, create a hole in each churro and fill with dulce de leche using a piping bag.

Toss filled churros in cinnamon sugar while still warm.
