Sumo Citrus Air Fryer Churros

Instructions

1. Put parchment paper on a baking sheet and spray with oil spray.
2. In a medium saucepan, add water, butter, sugar and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
3. Reduce heat to medium-low and add flour. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula until the dough comes together and is smooth.
4. Remove from heat and transfer the churro dough to a mixing bowl. Let cool for a few minutes.
5. Add eggs and Sumo Citrus zest and use an electric hand mixer until dough comes together – it should be almost like mashed potatoes. Transfer the dough to a piping bag and attach a star-shaped tip.
6. Pipe churros onto the parchment paper-lined baking sheet, into even 3 or 4 inch lengths. Push the churro batter with gentle and slight pressure to create even thick pieces. Cut the ends with scissors or push the tip towards the bottom and remove.
7. Refrigerate piped churros for 1 hour.
8. Meanwhile, make the Sumo Citrus sugar by combining granulated sugar and Sumo Citrus zest. Leave to the side.
9. Carefully transfer the cold churros with a spatula to a greased air fryer basket. Leave a little bit of space between each churro. Spray the top of churros with more oil spray.
10. Air fry at 375ºF for 11-13 minutes, until golden brown and insides are cooked through.
11. Once churros are cooked through, spray lightly with more oil and transfer the baked churros to the bowl with Sumo Citrus sugar. Toss the churros with sugar to coat.

Work in batches to finish all of the churros and enjoy warm!
