Simple and Elegant 3-Ingredient Sponge Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
Instructions:
- Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line the bottom of a round cake pan with parchment paper.
- Mixing the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the granulated sugar.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs and sugar together on medium-high speed for 8-10 minutes until the mixture is thick, pale, and has tripled in volume.
- Incorporating Flour:
- Sift the all-purpose flour into the egg mixture in small batches.
- Gently fold the flour into the batter using a spatula, ensuring thorough incorporation without overmixing. Maintain the airiness of the batter by folding gently.
- Baking:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cooling and Serving:
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optional Finishing Touches:
- Once cooled, serve the sponge cake as is, or garnish it with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or your preferred frosting.
