Natural Intentions' brand The Daily Crave created a unique, grain-free churro snack that's vegan-friendly and decadent thanks to a filling of non-dairy chocolate. The Beyond Churro bites offer a better-for-you take on churros with an unusual combination of ingredients like potato, cassava, lentils, black beans and pea protein. As well as being made without dairy, the free-from snacks also exclude soy, peanuts and GMO ingredients from their recipe.
Beyond Churros are available in a variety of flavors, including Original Cinnamon, Salted Caramel, Coconut and Double Chocolate. With each 10-piece serving, there's four grams of protein from plant-based sources, plus fiber and just five grams of sugar.
Sweet and crispy churros are becoming increasingly popular for their flavor and texture in the United States.
