Preparation

• Pour the water into a saucepan. Add white sugar, brown sugar, salt and butter. Wait for the water to boil; the butter should melt completely. Stir if necessary.
• Remove from heat and add flour all at once. Mix well to incorporate.
  
• Return to the heat and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough pulls away from the edges.
• Add the vanilla extract, then the eggs: add them 1 at a time, incorporating them well into the dough each time.
  
• Transfer the still-warm pastry to a pastry bag fitted with a fluted tip.
• Apply oil with your spray onto sheets of parchment paper suitable for the tray of your air fryer.
  Shape churros on the parchment paper: poach straight, well-spaced lines (the churros will puff up).
  *You can place them in a cool place so that the dough sets and they keep their shape.
  
• Spray churros again with oil. Bake churros for 12 minutes at 390°F/200°C in "Air Fry" mode.
  
  * You can flip them halfway through cooking. Extend cooking time if necessary.
• Cook a little longer if necessary, then roll the churros in a mixture of sugar and brown sugar.
  
  For the ganache, heat the cream, add the chocolate in small pieces and stir until smooth.
  
• It's ready! Enjoy it hot!
