If you’ve ever been to a Disney park, you know the rides are exhilarating, the atmosphere is great and, above all, the churros are amazing.

Disney sells more than 5.5 million churros in its parks each year. The Disney Parks YouTube channel released an instructional video on how to make those famous churros at home in 2018, but the company — which has closed its parks due to the COVID-19 pandemic — is now releasing the recipe on its blog to help people get through social distancing.

Here are the ingredients needed:

  • 1 cup water
  • 8 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 ½ cups vegetable or canola oil
  • ½ cup sugar
