ORANGE SPONGE CAKE

Preparation Time: 15 min
Total Time: 55 min
Ingredients:
Quantity:
All-purpose flour
1 cup
Salt
1/4 tsp
Egg yolks
6
Sugar
1 cup
Orange zest
1 Tbs
Orange juice
1/4 cup
Vanilla extract
1 tsp
Egg whites, at room temperature

1. Select the bake function. Turn the temperature to 325°F
and preheat the oven.
2. Whisk together the flour and salt in a small bowl.
3. With an electric mixer at medium-high speed, beat the egg
yolks, 3/4 cup of sugar, orange zest, orange juice, and the
vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Fold in the
flour mixture.
4. In a large clean bowl with clean beaters, beat the egg
whites until foamy. Add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, two
tablespoons at a time, until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/4 of the
beaten eggs whites into the egg yolk mixture to lighten.
Fold in the remaining egg whites until no white streaks
remain. Scrape the batter into an ungreased 9-inch spring-
form pan with a removable bottom.
Place the pan on a wire rack in position 1 and bake until the
top springs back lightly when pressed with your finger and
a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 - 40
minutes. Cover loosely with a tent of foil during the last 15
minutes of baking time to prevent overbrowning.
Invert the pan onto a wire rack and let cool 1 hour. Turn
the pan upright and run a small knife around the edge to
loosen. Remove the sides of the pan and cool completely,
about 30 minutes longer.
