Ingredients
- 1 prepared angel food cake (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the angel food cake into bite-sized cubes, about 1-inch pieces.
- In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon together.
- Dip each cake cube quickly into the melted butter, ensuring all sides are lightly coated.
- Toss or roll each buttered cube in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.
- Place coated cubes onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and golden.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best texture.
Notes
- Allow the cake cubes to sit at room temperature for a few hours before coating for extra crispiness.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon sugar mixture for deeper flavor.
- Drizzle with caramel or chocolate sauce for a richer dessert.
