Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Angel Cake Mix: Follow instructions on the package of your gluten-free angel cake mix, mix until smooth, and transfer to a greased baking pan. Bake at 350°F for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  2. Form the Bites: Once cooled, scoop small portions and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  3. Mix the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating: In a bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon evenly. Add a pinch of nutmeg for flavor if desired.
  4. Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep pan to submerge the bites halfway and heat to 350°F. Test with a small piece of bread; it should sizzle.
  5. Fry the Churro Bites: Place several balls into the hot oil without overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove and drain on paper towels.
  6. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: While warm, roll the bites in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm on a platter with optional chocolate sauce. Perfect for gatherings or sweet indulgence.
