Today Sonia will surprise you with a traditional very light and soft cake, made only with egg whites: the angel food cake... a sweet cloud, impossible to resist!

Today I'll surprise you with a traditional American soft and light cake, made only with egg whites: the angel food cake. It's a true sweet cloud, very difficult to resist. But let's see together what ingredients we'll need:
• 2 cups (480 g) of egg whites that is the whites of about (12 extra-large eggs)
• 1 big pinch of salt
• 1 ¼ cups (250 g) of sugar • ½ tbsp (5 g) of cream of tartar, a leavening agent
• 1/8 tsp (1 sachet) of vanilla powder or 1 tsp of vanilla extract
• 1 1/5 cups (150 g) of flour
Let's make together the angel food cake:
First of all, take the egg whites out of the fridge and keep at room temperature or, if you're short of time, bring them to 110°F (45°C) in a bain marie, stirring with a whisk, but without beating.
Now it's time to beat the egg whites until stiff, so use a planetary mixer, or a common electric beater, and let it run. As soon as the egg whites turn white, add the cream of tartar, then the sugar and the vanilla, one third at a time.
To get this result, beat the egg whites for 10-15 minutes at medium speed. Now add the sifted flour and the salt... stir gently to fold the ingredients.
The angel food cake doesn't involve the use of fats, that's why in the USA there is a special angel cake pan, that is tall with a flat removable bottom, but if you can't find it just use a tube pan with at least the flat bottom. In this case, line with parchment paper, and put in the cake batter.
After putting the batter in the cake pan, take a spatula or a knife and cut gently through the batter to remove any air bubbles. Then even out the batter and bake in a static oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 40-50 minutes.
40-50 min. - 350°F (180°C)
After such time, let the angel food cake rest for 10 minutes inside the cake pan, then take it out, sprinkle with powdered sugar and, why not, since it's so light, serve with sauces, fruit or jam. From Sonia and GialloZafferano, bye and see you next video recipe.

Easy Angel Food Cake Recipe!- The Scran Line
You’re about to learn how to make the easiest and lightest cake ever! Angel Food Cake is so light and fluffy and melt in your mouth. It’s the perfect easy to whip up cake that’s sure to impress! Topped with fresh cream and berries, it’s a stunner!
Angel Food cake
12 large egg whites, room temperature
150g - 1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
370g - 1 3/4 cups caster sugar, divided
1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 orange zested
3 drops orange food gel
Decorations
500ml - 2 cups whipped cream, cold
1 tsp vanilla extract
Powdered sugar to dust
Assorted berries, washed and dried
Angel Food cake
Preheat your oven to 175°C / 350°F.
Separate your eggs white from your yolks into a very clean glass or metal mixing bowl. To ensure your bowl is super clean, add 1 tsp white vinegar or fresh lemon juice and use a paper towel to wipe it down until dry. For this recipe you can either use a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a balloon whisk. Set aside for 30 minutes.
Sift the flour, salt and 3/4 cup of sugar into a large mixing bowl use a whisk to combine and set aside. You’ll need to sift these ingredients 3 times.
Add the cream of tartar and vanilla extract to the egg whites and whisk on medium speed until you reach soft peaks.
Slowly add the remaining sugar to the egg whites, 1 tbsp at a time and continue whisking until the mixture becomes thick and glossy.
Add 1/2 of the flour mixture and the orange zest to the meringue mixture and use a spatula to gently fold through. Repeat this process with the remaining flour. Your mixture should still be nice really thick and hold stiff peaks if you fold correctly.
For this recipe you’ll need an Angel Food Cake Pan. You don’t need to line or grease the pan because in order for this cake rise properly you need it to stick to the sides of the cake pan. Gently spoon the mixture into your cake pan.
Use a paper towel to clean off any cake batter off the side of the cake pan. Then use a skewer to gently swirl through the cake pan, almost hitting the bottom to get rid of any air bubbles. Place the cake pan on the bottom rack of your oven and bake for 35-40 minutes until the cake is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
Take the cake pan out of the oven and place upside down on your work bench to cool completely to room temperature. Most angel food cake pans half little feet at the top of the cake pan to allow steam to escape as the cake cools. If yours doesn’t place on a cooling rack to allow to cool.
Once cooled, carefully run a knife around the outside of the cake pan and then gently encourage the cake to lift out by wiggling and slowly lifting the bottom of the cake pan.
Whipped cream
Simple add the heavy cream and vanilla extract (1 tbsp sugar is optional) and use an electric hand mixer to whip to stiff peaks.
To decorate dust with powdered sugar and serve with fresh berries and whipped cream.

Printable Recipe:
Tube Pan (Affiliate Link):
Glass Bowls (Affiliate Link):
KitchenAid Mixer (Affiliate Link):
Ingredients
1 1/4 cup powdered sugar (156g)
3/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour (90g) OR you can use 1 cup of cake flour
1 1/2 cups egg whites at room temperature 10-12 egg whites (375ml)
1 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract optional
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar NOT powdered (200g)
strawberries and homemade whipped cream for topping optional
Instructions
00:00 Introduction
Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
00:34 In a medium sized bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and flour and set aside.
01:13 In KitchenAid mixer, combine egg whites*, cream of tartar, vanilla and almond extracts and salt. Mix well.
02:21 With mixer on high, beat in sugar, about 1 Tablespoon at a time, adding more only once the previous tablespoon has been dissolved (About 10-15 seconds; as you add the sugar, you may be able to hear the faint sound of the granules scraping against the metal bowl. Once you no longer hear this, the sugar has been dissolved). Do NOT scrape the sides of the bowl as you are doing this, just keep beating.
Beat until stiff peaks** form; the mixture will be thickened, glossy, and sticky and will greatly have increased in volume.
03:04 Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in sugar/flour mix, about ½ cup at a time. Do not over-mix; fold only until the flour mixture is combined with the egg whites mixture.
03:36 Pour mixture into an ungreased 10 inch tube pan and use a knife or spatula to cut through the batter to break through any air bubbles that may exist.
04:00 Bake the cake on 375F (190C) for 35 minutes or until the top of the cake springs back when lightly touched. Any cracks on the surface should look dry.
04:12 Immediately upon removing from oven, invert the cake onto a bottle or funnel and allow it to cool completely.
Once cake has cooled, place right-side-up and run a knife inside the rim of the cake pan. Invert cake onto serving platter.
05:26 Slice carefully, Angel food cake is delicate so be sure to saw/slice each piece carefully with a serrated knife to avoid smashing it with a dull straight-blade. Serve with strawberries and homemade whipped cream, if desired.
