Angel Food Churro Bites

A simple and easy recreation of this Spanish dessert.

My version of Churros are super simple to make. The traditional version requires making a dough and deep frying. This version only requires a few steps and only takes a few minutes.

These Churro Bites are great for dessert or just for snacking.

ANGEL FOOD CAKE CHURRO BITES

Ingredients:

• 2/3 Cup White Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
• 1 & 1/2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
• 1 (10 oz.) Angel Food Cake Loaf

Directions:

1. Cut the Angel Food Cake Loaf into 1 & 1/2 inch cubes.

2. In a paper lunch bag, add the Sugar and Cinnamon. Roll the top down tightly and shake the bag to mix the two together. Set aside.

3. Over medium heat, add 1/2 Tablespoon of the Oil into a large non stick frying pan. Add 1/3 of the Angel Food Pieces. You are going to work in 3 batches to cook these Churro Bites. Fry and flip the Angel Food Cake pieces. Watch closely as they can brown very quickly, turn often to brown all sides. You can turn the heat down to medium/low if necessary.

4. Transfer the Fried Angel Food Bites on to brown paper, or paper towels. Then quickly place them in the prepared bag with the Cinnamon Sugar. Shake vigorously to cover the Angel Food Bites in the mixture. Remove the Bites from the bag and place onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.

5. Repeat the above 2 steps for the last two batches.

6. Allow the bites to cool completely then serve. I like to make individual servings using a brown paper cone and a short glass as you see here. I just make the cones out of brown paper lunch bags. Set one at each place setting.

Store leftovers in an airtight container.
