Preheat the oven to 200C/400F (fan). Place silicon baking mats or baking parchment onto two baking sheets.

Add the water, butter, salt, vanilla extract, and brown sugar to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer for a minute or two until the sugar dissolves.

Turn the heat down to low and stir in the flour, using a wooden spoon. Once the flour is combined, it will start to pull away from the sides of the pan. Turn off the heat.

Using the wooden spoon, stir the eggs into the mixture, one at a time until combined. Don’t over-stir.

Spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a large star tip.

Pipe rows approximately 8-10cm long onto the baking sheets, leaving 2-3cm between each churro.

Pour 240 ml of boiling water into a separate baking tray and place this in the bottom of the oven.

Place the trays of churros in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Just before the churros are ready, melt the chocolate either over a bain marie, or in a bowl in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between each burst.

Mix together the caster sugar and cinnamon on a large plate.

Take the churros out of the oven and brush with the melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon sugar.

Serve with the melted chocolate and coconut.
