Sponge vanilla cake
Ingredients
1 cup cake flour
3 eggs
1/2 cup white sugar
2 Tablespoons milk
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp white vinegar
3 tsp vanilla essence
* Milk and eggs should be at room temperature. Don’t use while cold .
Instructions
1. Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks .
Add the egg whites in a large bowl, then add vinegar.
2. Beat for 2 minutes then gradually add sugar . Don’t add all the sugar at once . Add it into 4 divisions. Beat until you get a white stiff consistency. ( It takes 10-12 minutes using an electric mixer).
3. When the egg whites have formed a stiff consistency. Mix in one egg yolk at a time .Then add vanilla, oil and milk and mix .
4. Sift in flour and baking powder. Then gently fold . Use a silicone spatula or hand whisk . Don’t use an electric mixer for this stage .
5. Pour the batter (mixture) in a prepared baking pan . I used 8 inch pan but I recommend 6 inch pan .
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 160 Degrees Celsius for 35 minutes.
*Do not open the oven while the cake is not fully baked otherwise it will collapse in the middle.
