Trying new foods and flavors has always interested me. I will be making dishes that are my own ideas and recipes I find around the internet. Follow me on a journey of experimentation, learning, and good eats. There will be many fun and tasty surprises along the way. This will be an account of the successes and failures in the kitchen.

Angel Food French Toast
One word to describe this dish: Heavenly! ... I'm sorry, that was bad... Angel Food French Toast is pretty tasty though. You're probably thinking, "how do you make the french toast taste like angel food cake?" This is accomplished by using angel food cake. That's right, this is made by using actual angel food cake instead of bread slices! Now you're probably asking, "do you eat this for breakfast or dessert?" The answer that I'm hoping all of you are looking for is: BOTH! This dish works well for both meals. It brings the best of both worlds together.
It's not too complicated, but here's how you make it:
Ingredients:
Angel Food Cake, Sliced (You can make it yourself or use store bought loaves)
2 Eggs
3/4 cup Milk
2 tsp Vanilla
Strawberry Syrup (You can use whatever kind of syrup you like, I just prefer strawberry)
Whipped Cream
Strawberries (or any other fruit)
Directions:
1. Preheat a nonstick skillet or a nonstick griddle over medium heat.
2. Slice the angel food cake into 1-inch thick wedges.
3. In a shallow dish combine the eggs, milk, and vanilla.
4. Dredge the cake wedges in the egg mixture making sure to rotate and soak all sides of the cake.
5. Spray pan with cooking spray and cook wedges 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
6. Drizzle with syrup, add whipped cream and fruit. Serve immediately.
I've posted several sweet dessert related dishes now (it's my weakness), but I will be bringing you different meal time foods soon! I promise!

I like angle food cake but that seems like a lot of sweet/sugar for me. Interested to see what you think!
ReplyDeleteIf you're asking me, I've already made it. I make everything, take picture of everything, and taste everything before I post it here. This dish was delicious. It didn't feel that it was overly sweet at all.
DeleteMy mouth just jizzed it's pants. I'll pay you to cook for me when I visit in September.
ReplyDeleteLol, glad you like it! We can probably work something out when you visit.
DeleteOh my gosh! Sometimes I wonder if you are in the wrong field of work! Great hobby though. This looks so tasty, can't wait for you to come home! Mom
ReplyDeleteI really thought that it could have used more cinnamon in the batter... But I guess there was none to begin with. Still was good :)
ReplyDeleteThat wouldn't be bad. That'll go in Angel Food French Toast Mark II, lol.
