Making Crispy Air Fryer Churro Bites is a fun and rewarding process. Follow these steps for the ultimate churro experience:

1. Prepare Dough: In a medium saucepan, combine water, 2 tablespoons sugar, salt, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat.

2. Mix Flour: Once boiling, remove the pan from heat and stir in the flour until a dough forms.

3. Add Flavor: Stir in vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.

4. Form Bites: Allow the dough to cool for a few minutes. Then, use a piping bag fitted with a star tip, or a spoon, to create small bite-sized churro pieces.

5. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.

6. Spray Basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

7. Air Fry: Place churro bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each one. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

8. Prepare Coating: While they are cooking, mix 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.

9. Coat Bites: Once cooked, remove the churro bites from the air fryer and immediately toss them in the sugar-cinnamon mixture until coated.

10. Serve Warm: Enjoy your crispy churro bites while they are still warm for maximum deliciousness!
