Author: Gluten-Free Prairie
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
1¾ cups sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup Gluten-Free Prairie Simply Wholesome All Purpose Flour Blend
12 egg whites (the closer to room temperature the better)
⅓ cup warm water
1 teaspoon orange extract, or extract of your choice
1½ teaspoons cream of tartar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a food processor spin sugar about 2 minutes until it is superfine. Sift half of the sugar with the salt the cake flour, setting the remaining sugar aside.
In a large bowl, use a balloon whisk to thoroughly combine egg whites, water, orange extract, and cream of tartar. After 2 minutes, switch to a hand mixer. Slowly sift the reserved sugar, beating continuously at medium speed. Once you have achieved medium peaks, sift enough of the flour mixture in to dust the top of the foam. Using a spatula fold in gently. Continue until all of the flour mixture is incorporated.
Spoon mixture into an ungreased tube pan. Bake for 35 minutes then test for doneness.
Cool upside down completely before removing from pan.
