Easy Churro Bites
Easy Churro Bites - an easy 4 ingredient churro recipe! Pillsbury Grands Biscuits are cooked in a waffle maker and dipped in cinnamon sugar - so easy!!
Servings: 32 bites
Calories: 95kcal
Cost: 5
Ingredients
- 1 can Grands or similar biscuits (not flaky)
- 6 tablespoons (84g) unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
Optional Chocolate Ganache:
- ½ cup (118ml) heavy whipping cream
- ¾ cup (128g) chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle maker (mine has a 350°F setting).
- Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces. Place melted butter in a bowl. Stir cinnamon and sugar in an other bowl. Line a cookie sheet with paper towels.
- Place biscuit pieces into your waffle iron, separating them a little so they won't stick together. How many batches you have to make depends on the size of your waffle iron. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the pieces are golden brown. Carefully remove them (they're HOT!), dip them in the butter and coat with cinnamon sugar.
- These are best eaten right away or while they're still hot. They get soft once they cool. They're still good though!
- To make the chocolate ganache for dipping: place heavy whipping cream in a measuring cup or small bowl. Add chocolate chips and microwave for 45-60 seconds. Whisk until smooth, heating more as needed to get all the chocolate melted. Let cool at room temperature.
Notes
- I dont' recommend using flaky biscuits - they'll fall apart. Use regular buttermilk or southern style Grands or other equivalent.
- These are best served immediately. They'll soften over time, and get soggy from the butter and sugar.
- If you want to substitute crescent rolls, make my Churro Crescent Rolls instead!
