Vanilla Angel Food Cake

香草天使蛋糕

This dessert is made using egg whites only, no yolks, and during baking develops a delicious golden crust that hides the tender, pure white interior. Here it is served with creamy low-fat yogurt and summer berries, but it is just as tempting with juicy peaches, mangoes, or apricots.

这种甜点是用蛋白做成的,完全不用蛋黄。在烘焙的过程中,它会慢慢在表层烤出漂亮的金黄脆壳,包裹着柔软、纯白色的蛋糕。这里我们用它搭配低脂酸奶和夏天的浆果,不过它和多汁的桃子、芒果或李子也很搭哦!

1/3 cup sugar

8 large egg whites, at room temperature

8个蛋白,室温

1 teaspoon cream of tartar

1茶匙塔塔粉

1/2 cup sugar

1/2杯糖

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4茶匙盐

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1茶匙香草精



装饰(可选)

8 ounces strawberries, cut into quarters

8盎司草莓、切块

1 container (8 ounces) light vanilla yogurt

What to Do

步骤

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Sift the flour and 1/3 cup sugar onto a large plate and set aside.

1. 预热烤箱到350华氏度(约摄氏180°),晒面粉和1/3杯的糖备用。

2. Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl and whisk until frothy. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and salt and add to the whipping egg whites in a slow, steady stream. Add the vanilla extract, and continue whisking until the mixture forms stiff peaks.

2. 将蛋白和塔塔粉放在一个大碗里,打至起泡。缓缓加入剩下1/2杯的糖和一茶匙的盐,最后加入香草精,然后继续搅拌,直到完全变成白色的细腻泡沫,把碗倒过来也不会倒出来,才算完成。(沪江小编提醒:这步很重要哦!搅拌一定要均匀,否则最后蛋糕就不会松软)

3. Sift the flour mixture over the egg whites and fold in very gently with a large metal spoon until well blended.

3. 将第一步中完成的面粉分批倒入蛋白的混合物中,用一个大勺子以切拌的方式混合均匀,这时候不可以搅拌。

4. Spoon the mixture into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan, gently smoothing the top. Bake until golden brown and cake springs back when lightly touched in the center, about 35 minutes.

4. 将混合物倒入模具,抚平表层。烤到金黄色,轻碰蛋糕它会弹起来的程度,大约35分钟。

5. Invert the cake, still in the pan, onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely, upside down.

5. 蛋糕脱模、放在架子上让它完全冷却。

6. Just before serving, mix together the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. Spoon the fruit into the hollow in the center of the cake. Serve each slice with a dollop of vanilla yogurt.

6. 在吃之前混合好各种浆果,把蛋糕和水果装盘,加一勺香草酸奶。
