Why You Will Enjoy These Churro Bites…

• Easy Ingredients
• Quickly whips up
• Pressure cooks for a hands-off cooking
• Dessert rolled in cinnamon and sugar coating
• Easy churro recipe

Ingredients Needed

• Butter
• Brown Sugar
• Flour
• Cinnamon
• Milk
• Granulated Sugar
• Baking Powder
• Salt

How To Make

Step 1: Start by adding your butter and brown sugar to a bowl. Mix it up and then add in the cinnamon, milk, flour, baking powder, and salt. Whip it up without overmixing the batter.

If you overmix it will make the batter dense as it cooks in the pressure cooker. Spoon batter into a greased egg bite mold and then cover. We have the egg bite mold with the silicone lid. If yours is plastic use aluminum foil as the plastic will melt.

Pressure cook on high for 12 minutes with a 5-minute natural release. Remove your churro muffins, and roll in cinnamon and sugar and then dive in!

Can we Double This Churro Muffin Recipe

Yes! If you have more egg bite molds, just stack them up and cook as directed. The time will stay the same, or if you are a little concerned you can add 1-2 minutes extra.

The bites don’t rise too much so they will be safe to stack right on top of each other. Just make sure to cover each egg bite mold.

Instant Pot Dessert Bites

These Instant Pot Dessert Bites are such a dream. Best of all they make 7 churro dessert bites for you to whip up for that late-night snack attack.

It is best to serve these warm, as they have the best texture and moist factor when eaten fresh.

How To Prevent Churro Muffins From Sticking In Silicone Mold

Spritz cooking spray into each hole of the mold before you pour your churro batter in. It will make popping these mini muffins right out of the mold with little to no effort.

We just flipped them over with lid on bottom, and then pushed our finger on the bottom of each to release. Then we lifted up and the muffins were all out.

This truly is an easy churro bites recipe that takes minimal effort.

Do You Roll In Butter Before Cinnamon Sugar Mix

No, we didn’t. We wanted to make them less greasy on how they feel so we took the warm bites and rolled them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

If you would prefer to dip in butter first, followed by the sugar mix, go right ahead.

What To Serve With Churros

Mexican churros tend to be eaten alone, dipped in chocolate sauce, warm caramel sauce or served along with a hot chocolate or even coffee.

We tend to just eat them plain, cause they are so addictive that way. We also have done dulce de leche and dipped and that was a sinfully dessert.

Keeping leftovers

If you have leftovers, you will want to allow your bites to fully cool. Then place in an airtight container or sealable bag, and store for 2-4 days on the counter.

These are best fresh, and you might want to toss them in the microwave for a few seconds to warm them up and give them that fresh take. These churro mini muffins will dry out fast.

Can You Freeze Homemade Churro Mini Muffins

If you want to freeze these bites, we recommend leaving the cinnamon and sugar topping off, and freeze just the mini muffins.

Then once you pull from the freezer and they are thawed, dip in butter and roll in the cinnamon and sugar mix. This will help them from getting too soggy in the freezer.

Kitchen notes

You can double the recipe if you want, by stacking two egg bite molds on top of each other. If you find the cinnamon sugar mixture is not sticking, dip in melted butter and then roll in the mixture. If you roll the churro muffin bites fresh from Instant Pot they are warm enough the sugar sticks easily.
