π₯π€― MY KIDS WOULD NEVER GUESS WHATβS IN THESE CHURROS!
These golden, crispy homemade churros have a hidden chickpea twist! Theyβre lightly sweet, coated in cinnamon, and so fun to make for a better-for-you homemade treat. π€€β¨
π RECIPE:
β’ 1/2 cup water
β’ 1/2 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained
β’ 2 tbsp unsalted butter
β’ 1 cup almond flour
β’ 1 large egg
β’ 2 tbsp sugar-free sweetener
β’ Vegetable oil, for frying
β’ Cinnamon + extra sweetener, for coating
Boil the water, add the chickpeas, and blend until completely smooth.
Lower the heat, then add the butter and almond flour. Stir until a smooth dough forms and pulls away from the pan.
Transfer to a bowl and let cool slightly. Mix in the egg and sweetener until fully incorporated.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. Pipe into hot oil, snip into finger-sized churros, and fry until golden and crispy.
Drain, then coat generously with cinnamon and sweetener. π€€
