Angel Cake Recipe - French Food at Home with Laura Calder

Preheat the oven to 400°F and let it get hot before putting the cake in.

Separate the egg whites from the yolks.

Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

Add the egg yolks to the stiff egg whites.

Add 1 cup of sugar to the mixture.

Add a generous teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Sift in the flour and whisk it into the batter until smooth.

Pour the batter into a lined and buttered 9-inch pan, filling it to the top.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.

Make sure to test the middle of the cake to ensure it is cooked through.
