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