The sponge cake is fluffy and easy to bake

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake a lush and simple sponge cake in the oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees in advance. Beat the eggs into a container convenient for beating. The container must be very clean, dry and grease-free. Otherwise the eggs won't beat. Read all the intricacies of making sponge cake in the article at the end of the recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   Add sugar to eggs.

3. STEP 3

   

   Using a mixer, beat the eggs with sugar for several minutes until a fluffy, thick mass forms. Well-beaten eggs are the key to a fluffy and beautiful sponge cake, so take this step with the utmost care.

4. STEP 4

   

   Sift the flour through a sieve and add vanillin and baking powder. Sifting will saturate the flour with oxygen, making the finished cake even fluffier and more tender.

5. STEP 5

   

   Start adding flour to the beaten eggs little by little. Manually, using a whisk, mix it into the dough, trying to maintain all the splendor of the mass. The flour must be stirred in with gentle, smooth movements to preserve as much air bubbles as possible in the eggs. If you overdo it, the dough will settle and the biscuit will no longer rise. Adjust the amount of flour according to the consistency of the dough. It should not be thick, like moderately liquid sour cream.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the finished dough into the prepared baking dish (18-20 cm in diameter). It is better to take a springform pan for baking sponge cakes and line the bottom with baking paper. Place the dough in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 40 minutes. Do not open the oven for the first 20-30 minutes to avoid the sponge cake falling off. Time and temperature are approximate, read more about this in the link at the end of the recipe.

7. STEP 7

   

   The readiness of the biscuit can be checked in two ways. Press lightly on top of it. If the biscuit returns to its original shape, it is ready and can be removed from the oven. You can also use a toothpick: lower it into the center of the sponge cake and immediately pull it out - if it is dry, then the sponge cake is ready. Using a sharp knife, separate the sponge cake from the walls of the mold and remove it.

8. STEP 8

   

   Cool the finished biscuit completely. Wrap it in cling film and put it in the refrigerator for several hours. In the cold he will lie down and rest. After this, it can be easily cut into cakes. When cutting it will not crumble much. Use ready-made cake layers for any cake. Bon appetit!

The cake turned out very tasty. The recipe is wonderful, thank you! This is the only way we can cook from now on!!! I'm so glad I found this recipe! It seems to me that it is better to just enjoy the taste of the biscuit. I recommend using cream or making cream cheese! After cooking, the biscuit was left to sit for about 12 hours (all night and evening) in the refrigerator, then the next morning they were taken out and soaked, and then the cream was added)

Very tasty, soft biscuit. Moist, not dry. Good porous texture. But, apparently, I overdid it a little with the whipping, as you can see holes in the cakes 😅 the birthday boy will like the cake, which is the most important thing Thanks for the recipe!

The result was a really fluffy and simple sponge cake for the cake. It turned out very well, this is the first time that my sponge cake actually turned out! Mom will be delighted))) Thanks for the detailed recipe. I baked it at 180 degrees for 30 minutes, I didn’t keep it longer because I was afraid it would burn, otherwise it started to wrinkle around the edges and the color had already changed so well.

Please tell me why it rises unevenly. On one side the dough is fluffy, on the other it is clogged
