Baked Churro Donuts

By Kleinworth & Co 23 Comments

Baked Churro Donuts are an easy homemade donut recipe. Coated in cinnamon & sugar they taste just like the churros you get at Disneyland. Delicious!

Baked Churro Donuts

Have you had enough donut recipes yet??  Since I am trying really hard to not run the oven- I have been pulling out the donut maker a couple times a week it seems.  Some are healthier than others- but that’s the best part.  I can make them to fit my mood & what I am craving each week.  While I only have one right after the photos of them all- the kids get to have these for breakfast until they run out.

My kids,they are crazy for cinnamon – so of course churros were the first thing to come to mind!

They really can’t get enough cinnamon.  If I put it on everything they ate- they would be perfectly happy with that.

Baked Churro Donuts

Ingredients

Donuts

  • 3 C all-purpose flour
  • 1 C granulated sugar
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 2 sticks butter-melted cooled
  • 1-1/2 C Milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Coating

  • 1/2 C granulated sugar
  • 1/2 C brown Sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients for the coating into a bowl & whisk to combine.
  • Pout into paper bag- set aside
  • Preheat donut maker or if using traditional donut tins- preheat oven to 350.
  • Next add flour, sugar & baking powder to large bowl. Mix & create a well in the center.
  • Pour in milk- mix until almost all combined.
  • Add eggs- stir in well.
  • Add butter- mix until well combined.
  • Fold in cinnamon.
  • Spray donut maker wells or donut pans with cooking spray
  • Add a portion of batter to pastry bag & pipe in to donut maker wells or spoon into donut pans.
  • Bake 6 minutes in donut maker or 10-12 in oven.
  • Remove & immediately put in prepared paper sack. Crimp down tightly to hold in heat & shake to coat with the sugar mix. I then let them stay in the closed bag while I refilled my donut maker for the next batch.
  • Then remove & allow to cool on wire rack.
  • Store in airtight container. I keep mine refrigerated & then warm for about 20-30 seconds in the microwave before serving.

      Hi Aly,
      If kept in an airtight container at room temperature they should keep for 1-2 days after making. This recipe makes 12-15 mini donuts- so they should go pretty quickly.

    Tastes great and they stayed together.

    I made using earth balance vegan butter substitute and almond milk. Tge cinnamon/sugar topping didn’t stick very well; my guess is the vegan butter isn’t greasy enough. I used a pampered chef donut pan and pchef batter dispenser. It made 2 dozen donuts! Next time i may try adding some coconut oil. Oh also i greased with coconut oil as nonstick spray will ruin your pans. Tastes great!! we dipped them in chocolate.

    This recipe yielded a dozen regular-sized doughnuts for me! I’d expect it to yield 2-4 times the number of mini doughnuts, depending on their size.

    They ended up very light and fluffy! I halved the sugar, because I like a more gentle sweet. So delicious!

    I needed extra melted butter to brush over them at the end so the cinnamon sugar would stick.
