Star Wars Lightsaber Churro Tots are a fun treat for any Jedi or Sith Lord. They are one thing both the light and dark can agree on as tasty sweet. Check out how to make these fun Lightsaber Churro Tots for your next galactic gathering.
You might remember the popular Lightsaber Churros sold at Disney Parks.
They often come around again at nearby churro carts to Star Wars-themed attractions during new movie releases and Star Wars Days at Disney. I see them often during Star Wars Galactic Nights.
These Lightsaber Churro Tots are a fun spin to these popular Disney eats that you can easily make right at home.
Plus, who doesn’t love some edible glitter in their lives?
What are the ingredients of churros?
- water
- butter
- salt
- cinnamon
- flour
- eggs
- oil
- edible red glitter
- edible blue glitter
- cinnamon sugar
Why are my churros raw inside?
Your oil is probably too hot. When your oil is higher than 350° F, the outside of the churro tends to cook quickly, leaving the inside raw.
Try turning down your heat for even cooking.
Can churros be reheated?
These particular churros I probably wouldn’t reheat based on size. However, a typical churro can be stored in the refrigerator and is best reheated in the oven at a low temperature for a few minutes.
I don’t know if you will have any leftovers because who doesn’t love a fresh Star Wars churro?
How to make Star Wars Lightsaber Churro Tots
This churro tots recipe is fun because of the Star Wars themed edible glitter. Churros might look hard to make but I can assure you this was easy.
Begin by heating the 1 cup of water, 8 tbsp of butter, 1/4 tsp of salt, and 1/4 tsp cinnamon in a pot over medium heat. Bring everything to a boil and ensure the butte is well melted.
Turn the heat to low and pour in 1 1/4 cups of flour. Stir the dough quickly together until it begins to form a ball.
Take the pot off of the heat and set aside for 5 minutes. Once the dough has set, add in 3 eggs and mix well.
While the dough is resting, heat 1 1/2 cups of oil over medium heat. Ensure that your oil is 350° F so that the churro tots cook evenly.
Pour the dough into a piping bag. A 1/4″ star piping bag tip is best for a larger churro tot size. However, if you have a smaller or larger sized star tip, that is okay too. You can make these as small or as large as you wish. Cooking time may vary.
Once your piping bag is ready, pipe about 1 inch sized dough into the heated oil. Let cook until golden brown.
Remove each churro carefully onto a plate covered with a paper towel. Let the churro cool for a few minutes.
Using two different plates, add cinnamon sugar and a bit of the red and blue edible glitter. One plate is for the red and the other being for the blue.
Carefully roll each churro over the sugar mixture and set on a separate plate.
Enjoy your Star Wars Lightsaber Churro Tots and choose wisely what side you are on.
