Air-Fryer Churros Tips
Can you make air-fryer churros ahead of time?
You can make the dough a day or two in advance—just keep it refrigerated in an airtight container. Because the churros are best served warm, though, we recommend air-frying them right before serving.
What are some good dips to serve with churros?
Churros are designed for dunking! Serve them with
Mexican Chocolate Dip,
Salted Caramel Sauce or any other sweet dip that suits your fancy.
What's the best way to grease an air-fryer basket?
To grease, rub a small amount of oil on the bottom of the basket. We suggest using an oil with a high smoke point, such as safflower or soybean. For more, check out these

Should air-fryer churros be as crispy as deep-fried churros?
Your air-fryer churros likely won’t be quite as crunchy as the deep-fried version. They’ll have a slightly softer texture but will still be delicious!
