Sponge cake with proteins for cake

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 165 g soft butter
  • 1.5 cups of sugar
  • 2 cups premium flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 whites from large eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Special equipment: 2 round cake tins (23 cm in diameter and 5 cm deep) or 1 rectangular cake tin (23 cm x 33 cm x 5 cm), greased with butter. Line the bottom with parchment or waxed paper.

Preparation:

  1. Place a rack on the middle shelf of the oven and preheat to 180°C.

    In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix the flour with the baking powder and salt. Combine the egg whites, milk, and vanilla extract. Fold 1/3 of the flour mixture into the creamed butter, then pour in half of the milk mixture. Continue adding the remaining ingredients, one at a time, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
  2. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and smooth the surface with a spatula. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pans on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then invert, remove the parchment paper, and cool completely.

    Note

    To make a classic golden sponge cake, replace the egg whites with 3 large eggs and 1 yolk.
