Orange Churros



Batter:
2 Eggs and 1 Egg Yolk
6 T. Sugar
2 1/2 T. Orange Juice
1 T. Orange Zest
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 1/2 c. Self-Rising Flour
Vegetable Oil

Cinnamon Sugar:
1 c. Sugar
2 1/4 tsp. Cinnamon

Whisk cinnamon sugar together and set aside to roll finished churros.

Preheat oil to 355. Whisk eggs, yolk, sugar, orange juice, orange zest, vanilla and cinnamon in a large bowl. Let stand 5 minutes, then stir in flour. Spoon batter into pastry bag fitted with 3/8" star tip. Working in batches, pipe several 3-4" ribbons of batter into hot oil. Fry until golden brown, turning occasionally and adjusting heat to maintain temperature, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Roll warm churros in bowl of cinnamon sugar and toss to coat. Serve warm, really like to eat these with Hot Chocolate in the winter and cream cheese frosting any other time!!
