Making Healthy Air Fryer Churro Bites is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Dough: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring this mixture to a boil and then remove from heat.

3. Mix in the Dry Ingredients: Slowly stir in the flour and baking powder until a dough forms. Mix fully until the dough is smooth and well combined.

4. Incorporate the Egg: Allow the dough to cool slightly, then beat in the egg until fully incorporated.

5. Shape the Bites: Using a piping bag or a spoon, create bite-sized churro shapes directly onto the air fryer basket, ensuring space between each piece for expansion.

6. Air Fry the Bites: Insert the basket into the air fryer and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

7. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture: In a shallow dish, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the coating.

8. Coat the Churro Bites: Once cooked, immediately roll the churro bites in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.

9. Serve Warm: Let the churro bites cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.

10. Enjoy With Dipping Sauce: Consider serving these bites with a chocolate or caramel dipping sauce for an extra delicious touch.
