About Chourros
Churros are a popular treat originating from Spain and widely enjoyed across Latin America and beyond. These crispy, deep-fried pastries are traditionally crafted from a simple dough made of flour, water, and salt, sometimes enriched with eggs or butter for added flavor. After frying, churros are coated in sugar and cinnamon, often paired with chocolate sauce, caramel, or dulce de leche for dipping. While their crunchy texture and sweet taste make them a tempting indulgence, they are high in refined carbohydrates, sugars, and fats, especially due to the frying process. They provide quick energy but lack significant nutritional value or fiber. As an occasional treat, churros can fit into a balanced diet when enjoyed in moderation. For a slightly healthier approach, some variations are baked rather than fried, reducing the fat content while maintaining their signature taste.
