Churro & Berry Dessert Board

Walking the sandy paths of an island town at sunset, my nose drew me to a tiny cart. We were in Mexico one more night, and the golden sunset started to sizzle down.  At the same time, the unmistakable aroma of buttery, cinnamon-sugar churros were being churned out and I could hardly resist. The scent drew me in like a cartoon character to a freshly baked pie on a windowsill. For a couple pesos, we got a handful of churros and wasted no time tearing at the hot fried dough. Dunking each one in sticky chocolate sauce and sharing bites as we walked by iguanas in the warm night.

A little bit of heaven, if you ask me!

When we returned home, I wanted to share our churro indulgence with the kids. So, it was high time to spoil everyone with a beautiful dessert board. Warm, cinnamon-sugar churros made super easily, and all our favorite berries piled on a big round platter.

This did not survive more than 30 minutes, before it was all quickly devoured.

Not only is this Churro Board perfect for summer nights and any occasion gatherings, but the churros are very easy to make. Store bought frozen churros are fairly easy to find at your grocery store. Using them saves so much time, mess and effort – I found they are as good as the ones you get any grab-and-go cart!

Serve with extra cinnamon-sugar and a simple, scrumptious Chocolate Dulce de Leche for dipping. Your guests will thank you.

Let’s get you to the recipe, and start assembling a beautiful Churro Dessert Board!

Can I bake or air-fry the churros?

I only have experience with frying the churros traditionally. But, I did find a tutorial for air frying! Simply preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F and cook for 8-10 minutes. The package instructions for frozen churros do not recommend baking them.

What size board do I need?

The round wooden board used here is about 15-inch across. Any large serving board or platter will do! If you are planning on keeping the churros warm in the oven, be mindful to use an oven-safe dish.

Where do you find frozen churros?

Most grocery stores will carry churros in the frozen food section. I used Goya frozen churros. Their website has a store locator here, where you can enter the product you’re looking for, and find it at your local grocer. Handy, huh?

Can I make this ahead?

This board is best made the same day you wish to serve. I would not recommend making ahead, so that your churros are crispy and hot! Lay out the berries just before serving, too. To store leftovers, cover and refrigerate churros separate from the berries.
