Description
Delightfully flaky pastries that combine the crispy exterior of churros with the tender crumb of muffins, filled with dulce de leche or chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- Dulce de leche or chocolate spread (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and brush with melted butter.
- Roll up the pastry into a log and slice into 1-inch pieces.
- Twist each slice to form a spiral and place in the muffin tin with the cut side facing up.

- Mix sugar and cinnamon in a bowl, and once baked, brush cruffins with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Fill with dulce de leche or chocolate if desired.
