Here's a simple and delicious lemon angel food cake recipe:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, combine one 16-ounce box of angel food cake mix with an entire 21-ounce can of lemon pie filling. Whisk gently at first, then beat until the batter is fluffy and fully blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before slicing. For extra flair, dust with powdered sugar, add fresh berries, or top with whipped cream. 🍋✨
