Homemade angel food cake is worth the work. It is moist, unlike the sweet Styrofoam-like cakes available in the grocery bakery. A tube pan with a removable bottom is highly recommended.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons almond extract
- 1.25 cups cake flour
- 1.75 cups white sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions

Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Mix in cream of tartar, vanilla extract, and almond extract.

Sift together flour, sugar, and salt. Repeat five times.
-
3

-
4
Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
-
5

Invert the tube pan and let cake cool to room temperature before removing from the pan.
