Method:

For the churros:

In a bowl, whisk together rice flour and tapioca starch.

In a small saucepan, combine water and coconut oil and ring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer and stir in vanilla essence. 

Add flour mixture and stir until dough comes away from sides of pan, cook for 1 to 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl and allow cooling. Start heating your oil to a moderately high heat in a medium pot.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together coconut sugar, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.

Fill piping bag with dough. Squeeze strips of dough 5 to 7 cm long and about 1 cm in diameter into hot oil, cook for 6 to 7 minutes, or until churros are crisp and golden brown. 

Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer to bowl with cinnamon sugar and toss to coat well.

Transfer to a serving plate. 

Repeat with remaining batter. 

Serve immediately with hot chocolate.
