Ingredients

  • Angel Food CakeOne store-bought or homemade angel food cake provides the airy, light base for our churro bites. Ensure it's fully cooled before cutting.
  • Granulated SugarThis essential ingredient forms the sweet coating and helps create that signature churro crispness. It will be combined with cinnamon.
  • Ground CinnamonThe warm, aromatic spice that gives churros their distinctive flavor. Fresh cinnamon makes a noticeable difference.
  • Unsalted ButterMelted butter acts as the adhesive for the cinnamon sugar, ensuring it coats every surface of the angel cake bites. Use good quality butter for the best flavor.
  • Vegetable Oil or Canola OilFor frying, a neutral oil with a high smoke point is crucial for achieving golden-brown perfection without imparting unwanted flavors.
  • Powdered Sugar (optional)A light dusting of powdered sugar can add an extra touch of sweetness and a beautiful visual flourish.
  • Chocolate Sauce (optional)A rich, decadent chocolate sauce makes an excellent dipping companion, adding another layer of flavor.
  • Caramel Sauce (optional)Sweet and buttery caramel sauce provides a delightful alternative or addition for dipping these treats.

  2. Step 2:Melt Butter and Coat Cake Cubes
  3. Step 3:Coat with Cinnamon Sugar
  4. Step 4:Fry or Bake the Churro Bites

Notes

  • Enjoy these delightful bites immediately for peak crispness; if there are any delicious leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a day, though the texture will soften slightly.
  • To bring back some of that wonderful crispiness for day-old bites, a quick refresh in an oven or air fryer at 300°F (150°C) for a few minutes will work wonders, avoiding the microwave to prevent sogginess.
  • Serve your churro bites warm, fresh from frying or baking, alongside a generous dusting of powdered sugar and a selection of decadent dipping sauces like chocolate or caramel for an extra indulgent treat.
  • For truly golden and crisp churro bites, ensure your frying oil is consistently heated to around 350-375°F (175-190°C); this prevents them from becoming greasy and helps achieve that perfect exterior quickly.
