Ingredients needed to make Broiled Angel Food Cake with Maple Whipped Cream
- 1 pint heavy whipped cream
1-2 T. real maple syrup
1 t. real vanilla extract - 1 angel food cake, homemade or purchased, sliced as described above
5 T. unsalted butter, melted
1 pint fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced - ½ pint fresh blueberries washed
Instructions for making Broiled Angel Food Cake with Maple Whipped Cream
- In a large glass bowl, blend 1-pint heavy whipping cream with a hand or immersion blender until it doubles in size and changes texture. Drizzle maple syrup and vanilla extract into the bowl and continue blending until the mixture is light and fluffy. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Place your oven’s top rack on the second highest setting and turn the broiler on “High.” Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
- Place the angel food cake slices on the prepared baking sheet and brush with the melted butter. Turn over each piece and repeat on the other side.
- Place the baking sheet under the broiler until the angel food cake turns golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Tip: You may need to rotate the baking sheet to get uniform results. Keep a very close eye on the cake during this time because it can burn very quickly.
Once toasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and turn over each slice. Place back under the broiler and toast the remaining side until golden brown. approximately 2-3 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool slightly before arranging the toasted slices on individual serving plates. Top with some maple whipped cream and fresh berries and serve immediately. Enjoy!
