Pumpkin Churro Bites

Print Recipe

These little bites of joy are everything you love about churros—crispy outside, fluffy inside—made even better with pumpkin spice magic. The pumpkin purée keeps them tender and flavorful, while a warm cinnamon sugar coating makes them irresistible. Dip them in rich chocolate sauce, and you’ve got the ultimate fall party dessert (or solo indulgence).
