Ingredients

To make Healthy Air Fryer Churro Bites, you will need the following ingredients:

– 1 cup whole wheat flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– ½ teaspoon cinnamon
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
– ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
– 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Cinnamon sugar (for coating):
– ¼ cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon cinnamon


Instructions

Creating Healthy Air Fryer Churro Bites is a straightforward process. Follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (190°C) for at least 5 minutes.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, applesauce, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Create the Dough: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.
5. Shape the Churro Bites: Use your hands to shape small pieces of dough into bite-sized balls. Aim for about 1 inch in diameter.
6. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar: In a shallow dish, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
7. Air Fry the Bites: Place the dough balls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching. You may need to do this in batches. Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
8. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: Once cooked, remove the churro bites from the air fryer. While they are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
9. Serve Immediately: For the best flavor and texture, enjoy your churro bites right away while they are still warm and crispy.
