For the best results, use a high-quality angel food cake mix. Alternatively, you can use a homemade angel food cake, but ensure it is slightly stale for optimal texture. Do not oversoak the cake slices in the egg mixture, as they will become too fragile and difficult to handle. If you don't have brown sugar, you can substitute it with granulated sugar, but the brown sugar adds a subtle caramel flavor that complements the angel food cake beautifully. Feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon and vanilla extract to your liking. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg for a warm, comforting flavor. This French toast is best served immediately, as the angel food cake can become soggy if left to sit for too long. Leftover French toast can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.

Jun 22, 2025I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is maybe adding a little bit of orange zest to the egg mixture for a citrusy twist.

Jun 15, 2025The angel food cake makes the French toast so light and airy. It's like eating a cloud! I added a dollop of mascarpone cheese and some fresh berries on top, and it was divine.
