Total Time 55 minutes mins
For the Churro Chips:
- 2 naan breads about 9-inch each
- 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
For the Chocolate Ganache Dip:
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips 60% cacao recommended
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make the chocolate ganache: Combine heavy cream and chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds to 2 minutes. Let sit 1 minute, then whisk until smooth. Chill in the fridge or freezer for 30 minutes, until thickened but still scoopable.
Cut the naan: Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice each naan into triangles or strips.
Bake the chips: Place the naan pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 6 minutes, flip each piece, and bake another 6–8 minutes, until lightly crisped.
Mix cinnamon sugar: While the chips bake, stir sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish or bowl.
Butter and coat: While warm, brush each chip with melted butter and dip into the cinnamon sugar, coating both sides. Return coated chips to the baking sheet.
Serve: Serve warm or at room temperature with the thickened chocolate ganache for dipping.
-
For a crunchier chip, bake an extra 2–3 minutes—but watch closely so they don’t over-brown.
-
The ganache can be made ahead and stored up to 3 days. Microwave briefly to re-soften.
-
Try sprinkling a pinch of sea salt on the finished chips to balance the sweetness.
-
Use whole wheat or garlic naan for a slightly savory twist (yes, really—it works).
-
These chips are best fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
