Step 1
Whisk flour and water together in a bowl until you have a thick, smooth batter with no lumps.
Step 2
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high until a drop of batter sizzles immediately upon contact.
Step 3
Fit a piping bag with a large star tip; fill with batter. Squeeze 2-inch strips directly into hot oil.
Step 4
Fry 60–90 seconds per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 5
Toss warm churro pieces in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated on all sides.
