With Disneyland and Walt Disney World closed thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, fans are not only missing their favorite rides and characters, but also some of the delicious treats they look forward to devouring during trips to the theme parks.
Disney Parks official blog is looking to bring a little sweetness to homebound Disney fans by sharing the recipe for one of their most popular treats – the Disney churro.

Fortunately, you don’t have to be particularly deft in the kitchen to whip up a batch of the sugary cinnamon morsel of deliciousness and you probably have all the ingredients hanging around in your pantry just waiting to be used.

Disney Parks shared the easy recipe on their official blog, along with a helpful video!

Ingredients

1 cup water
8 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
