History of Churros

Churros are one of Mexico’s most iconic desserts, beloved for their crunchy texture on the outside and soft, fluffy dough on the inside. These delicacies are a favorite all over the country, from street markets to fancy restaurants. In this article, join us as we explore the fascinating history of churros and how they have become a staple of Mexican cuisine.

Origins and Evolution

The origin of churros can be traced back to Spain, where they are believed to have been introduced by Spanish pastry chefs who were inspired by a Chinese cooking recipe. Over the centuries, churros have become a popular delicacy around the world, arriving in Latin America during the Spanish colonization.

Ways to enjoy them

Churros are best enjoyed freshly made and still warm, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon for a sweet and aromatic touch. However, they can also be accompanied with a variety of sauces and fillings, such as dulce de leche, hot chocolate or whipped cream. In some regions of Mexico, they are served with coffee or hot chocolate for a deliciously comforting breakfast or snack.
