Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by thawing your angel food cake if it’s frozen, then cut the cake into 1.5-inch cubes.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed pan, pour in enough vegetable oil to submerge the cake cubes about 2 inches deep.
  3. Once the oil is hot at 350°F, carefully add the cake cubes and fry for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Remove the fried cake cubes using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  5. Mix together cinnamon and sugar in a bowl, then toss the warm fried bites until well-coated.
  6. Optional: Create a glaze by mixing powdered sugar with a tablespoon of milk, then drizzle over the bites.
