Baking: Angel Cake

The perfect baking: angel cake recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.

* for the dough

  • 8 Protein
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 200 g Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla powder
  • 80 g Flour
  • 20 g Food starch
  • 100 g Powdered sugar

* for filling and decoration

  • 2 Protein
  • 200 g Sugar
  • 25 g Desiccated coconut
  1. For the dough, beat the egg white until stiff, then add salt and baking powder and continue beating until a firm egg white has formed.
  2. Now add the sugar and beat with a mixer on the highest setting for a few more minutes.
  3. Mix the flour, cornstarch and powdered sugar and sift in portions over the egg whites and carefully stir in with a whisk.
  4. Grease a 22cm springform pan with tube base and dust with a little flour. Spread the dough in there.
  5. Bake in an oven preheated to 170 ° C for 50-60 minutes (chopsticks).
  6. Then take it out and turn it out onto a wire rack, but do not remove the pan yet.
  7. When the cake is cold, carefully remove it from the mold and place on a baking sheet. (The dough is very light and airy.)
  8. Now cut off the upper part (approx. 2 cm) and put aside. Cut a notch around 1.5-2cm wide and deep into the cake.
  9. For the filling / topping, beat the egg whites in a hot water bath until stiff, then add the sugar and continue beating for 5-6 minutes until a thick, shiny mixture has formed. Now take it out of the water bath and keep beating until the mass has cooled down.
  10. Then fill some of this mixture into the notch of the dough. Scatter some coconut flakes (2-3 tablespoons) on top.
  11. Now put the upper part that was set aside back on top.
  12. Then coat the entire cake with the egg white mixture (meringue) and then sprinkle with the remaining desiccated coconut.
  13. Now put it in the oven again and dry at 50 ° C for about 30-40 minutes. Then turn off the stove, open the door a crack and let the cake cool down inside.
  14. PS: This cake can also be served very well as a dessert.
