Angel Food Cake Churro Bites Recipe

Angel Food Cake Churro Bites convert boxed angel food cake into bite-sized fried treats coated in cinnamon sugar. The cake is thawed, cut into cubes, then fried until golden brown, yielding a crispy exterior and soft interior. Tossing the warm bites in cinnamon sugar adds a sweet spice coating reminiscent of churros. An optional drizzle of powdered sugar glaze adds extra sweetness and moisture.

Description

These Angel Food Cake Churro Bites start with thawed angel food cake cut into approximately 1.5-inch cubes. The cubes are fried in vegetable oil over low to medium heat until they develop a golden-brown crust while retaining a tender center. The frying process crisps the exterior, giving a texture similar to churros.

Once fried, the cake bites are immediately coated in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar, which clings to the warm surface, providing a classic sweet and spiced flavor. For added sweetness and a touch of creaminess, a drizzle of powdered sugar mixed with milk can be applied on top after the cinnamon sugar coating.

This recipe leverages the lightness of angel food cake and transforms it into a fried dessert snack with churro-inspired flavors. It's suitable for serving as a casual treat or alongside coffee or tea.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 angel food cake brand Sara Lee
  • 1 cup sugar

Instructions

  1. Let your Angel Food Cake thaw. Once thaw, cube the cake. My cubes were about 1.5 inches x 1.5 inches.
  2. Heat vegetable oil on low-medium heat. Fry cubes until golden brown.
  3. Once golden brown, immediately put them in the bowl with cinnamon and sugar and toss around. Continue doing this until they're all done.
  4. For even more flavor, mix 1 cup powdered sugar with a tablespoon of milk, mix and drizzle over the bites. ENJOY!
