I don't think you can really use something else without deviating from the very core of what churros is. Perhaps you are looking for beignet or donuts instead of churros? I assume that commercialized churros you can buy aren't as egg-y because they add more flour instead of eggs, since that is cheaper.

Just flour, boiling water and a pinch of salt. They are deep fried in olive oil and in some parts of Spain they're coated with sugar.

In Australia (where I am, funnily enough) we have an excellent chain Spanish chocolate store that sells churros with chocolate. To be honest, I have never had them any other way. I will have to try making my own now, because homemade is always better! :) These look lovely!
