Oven Baked Churros

Saw this recipe in May 2011 Southern Living Magazine. I had puff pastry in the freezer, so gave it a shot. These are delicious!! Puff Pastry itself is hard to beat, but coated in cinnamon and sugar makes it even better!!

Recipe:

Ingredients

• 1 (17.3-oz.) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup melted butter

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 450°. Unfold and cut puff pastry sheets in half lengthwise, and cut each half crosswise into 1-inch-wide strips. Place strips on a lightly greased parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown.

2. Meanwhile, combine sugar and cinnamon. Remove pastry strips from oven, and dip in butter; roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Let stand on a wire rack 5 minutes or until dry.
