Disney World official recipe 'Churros" was shared on their official website on April 5th this year. Did you know about it?🤩 Original recipe is not vegan, but I made it vegan with natural and plant-based ingredients!
Let't check it out!
When you read through the website, you will find a message from Mr. Alex, Food and Beverage Communications Coordinator☟
These past few weeks, we’ve seen many of you sharing Disney recipes and creating your very own magical moments right at home. Being a BIG fan of Disney Parks snacks myself, this has inspired us to share one of my favorite recipes so you can continue creating #DisneyMagicMoments.
by Alex Dunlap, Food & Beverage Communications Coordinator
Why did he decide to share the churro recipe with everyone in the world?
The answer is to let us enjoy having Disney Magic Moments with his favorite snack, churros, even though Disney Parks are all closed now due to covid-19.
What exactly are the Disney churros made of?
☟ORIGINAL RECIPE☟

That is the original recipe that you can see on their official website as well :)
When I heard about this recipe being shared worldwide, it did make me want to try making some. But there was a problem that this recipe contains butter and eggs🙆♀️
Another issue came up then.
I DO NOT HAVE ANY PIPING BAGS AND TIPS😩
Are you in the same situation as mine?
What should we do?
Don't worry :)
Problems sloved🙆♀️
I did it myself :))))
I made my own piping tip using Apple Cider vinegar bottle that I used up, and that was sitting in a trash bin in my house to be throwon away. I kinda thought that I could go to a grocery store to buy new one, but I remember that the store would be probably having a crazy long line in the front to do social distancing, so I decided not to💦
This is what I created :)
Doesn't it look like it would work perfectly?
Well, it is okay to be honest.
If you have a piping bag and tip, then I highly recommend you using them for sure!
But if you don't, why don't you create your own one? 🙆♀️
When I first looked at the original recipe, I honestly thought "Huh, this might be easy😍"
Then, when I actually started making vegan churros,
"What the heck is going on?! Why not working properly😭"
After attempting and thinking from many different aspects as this is kind of an experiment, here is my Vegan Churros based on the Disney Churros🌱
【1st Attempt】
【2nd Attempt】
🌱THINGS THAT I DID TO MAKE IT VEGAN DELICIOUS🌱
①Substitue AP Flour with Whole Wheat Flour
②Substitute butter with coconut oil
③Substitute eggs with flax eggs
④Substitute sugar with raw sugar
I changed all animal products to plant-based ones as well as more nutritious food like whole wheat flour🙆♀️🌿
This is what you need for my Vegan churro recipe☺☟
🌱KEY POINTS OTHER THAN INGREDIENTS🌱
At first, the dough wasan't properly formed like a ball when whole wheat flour was added in.
These are what I did to make the dough work
〇Reduced the amount of coocnut oil
〇Added 1 cup of water
〇Let the dough rest for another 15 minutes
〇Rest in fridge
〇Pre-baked dough before deep frying
If you don't let your dough rest enough in fridge, the shape of churros would be collapsed like there's nothing in the frying oil ! It'll just dissapear.
That's why you definitely should put your dough in fridge for 20 minutes before deep frying to keep the churros' shape perfect, like the picture below🙆♀️
INGREDIENTS (2-3 Servings)
2 cups water
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
［Flax eggs］
3 tablespoons flax seeds
6 tablespoons water
1 1/2 cups grapeseed oil
1/2 cup raw sugar
3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 cups water
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
［Flax eggs］
3 tablespoons flax seeds
6 tablespoons water
1 1/2 cups grapeseed oil
1/2 cup raw sugar
3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
- Mix together with flax seeds and water in a small bowl for at least 3o minutes.
- Add water, coconut oil, Himalayan Pink Salt and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon into a pot. Bring it to a rolling boil over the medium heat.
- Turn the heat down to low.
- Add in whole wheat flour and combine well.
- Let the dough rest for at least 20 minutes im fridge.
- Pipe the dough using a piping bag and a star tip.
- Deep fry some of your churros until golden brown, then place them onto a mesh tray to drain oil.
- Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Then transfer churros to the bowl, to coat with sugar and cinnamon.
NOTES
◎Please place your dough into fridge to set for about 20 minutes.
