•
1 cup cake flour
•
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided
•

05 Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Sift the cake flour and 3/4 cup of sugar together in a small bowl.
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and salt together until frothy.
Add the cream of tartar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
Gradually add the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, while continuing to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold in the sifted flour mixture and vanilla extract until just combined.
Pour the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
Use a knife to cut through the batter in the pan, to eliminate any large air pockets.
Bake the cake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cake springs back when touched lightly.
Remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert the pan onto a wire rack.
Let the cake cool completely in the pan upside down, about 1 hour.
Once the cake has cooled, use a knife to loosen the sides of the cake from the pan, then carefully remove the cake from the pan.
Serve the Angel Food Cake with your desired toppings, such as whipped cream and fresh fruit.
Enjoy your light and fluffy Angel Food Cake!
