Yummy Angel Food Cake recipe

[Guest guest]

I just made an angel food cake from scratch that is SO good! It's even

pretty light, not as light as the regular stuff obviously, but not as dense

as the gfcf mix cake I made a couple mos ago! Here's my recipe, but if

anyone has any ideas to make it more light, I'd be willing to try it!

1 1/2 C egg whites (approx 11 eggs worth)

1 C gfcf flour (I used 1/3 c Sylvan Farms All Purpose, 1/3 C Tapioca, and 1/3

C white rice, sifted together 3x)

1 C less 2 tbsp sugar

3/4 C sugar

1/4 Tsp salt

1 1/2 Tsp Cream of Tartar

1 Tsp Vanilla

1/2 Tsp Xantham Gum

Add the salt and Cream of Tartar to the egg whites and beat 25 strokes. (I

used my Kitchenaid Stand mixer and just counted 25 rotations). Gradually add

the 3/4 C sugar in 6 separate additions, beating 15 stokes in between each

addition. (Again, I just counted 15 rotations). When all sugar is added,

beat until reaches stiff peaks. (I turned the mixer on the highest setting

and let it go until it reached stiff peaks). Beat in Vanilla.

Combine the 1 1/2 C sugar, flour mixture, and xantham gum and sift together

4x. Add to the eggwhites, folding in gently. Blend all ingredients

together. Pour carefully into angel food cake pan. Bake at 375 for 30 mins

or until cracks are dry. Remove and run a knife around inside edge of pan to

loosen the cake. Invert the pan and let cake drop onto plate to cool.

Enjoy! My only bummer is that I forgot to get some strawberries to slice up

with them.. Guess I'll have to make another cake, I don't think there's much

left of this one already! LOL!
