Method

  1. Preparation

    Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a 24cm cake tin with baking paper.

  2. Egg whites

    Whisk the egg whites with half of the sugar into a stiff foam, adding it gradually.

    6 min
  3. Egg yolks

    Whisk the egg yolks with the remaining sugar and the vanilla sugar until pale and frothy.

    5 min
  4. Combining

    Gently fold the flour mixed with the baking powder into the yolk mixture, then add the lukewarm melted butter.

  5. Adding the foam

    Fold the whisked whites into the batter in two batches, gently so that the air stays in.

  6. Baking

    Pour the batter into the tin and bake until golden brown, until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out dry.

    30 min
  7. Cooling

    Take it out of the oven, leave it in the tin for a few minutes, then cool completely on a wire rack.
