Serve Hot: Churros are best served fresh while crisp and warm.
Whipped Feta Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Reheat: Reheat churros in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 5–8 minutes to regain crispness. Avoid microwaving.
Variations:
Herb Upgrade: Add fresh chopped chives, parsley, or thyme to the dough for extra flavor.
Spicy Dough: Add a pinch of cayenne or crushed red pepper flakes to the churro mix.
Goat Cheese Dip: Swap feta for goat cheese in the dip for a tangier twist.
Sweet-Savory Flip: Roll the hot churros in a Parmesan-sugar blend for a unique umami-sweet bite.
FAQ:
Q: Can I bake these churros instead of frying?
A: Yes, but they won’t be as crisp. Pipe onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes until golden.
Q: Can I make the dough ahead of time?
A: It’s best piped and fried fresh, but you can prep the dough and keep it refrigerated for up to 1 day.
Q: What can I use instead of feta?
A: Ricotta, goat cheese, or labneh can work well, blended with cream cheese and seasonings.
Q: Is there a vegan version?
A: Try using vegan butter, plant-based cheese alternatives, and egg replacers. Results may vary slightly in texture.
