INSTRUCTION:
- Heat the oven at three-twenty-five degrees F.
- Take a 9-inch tube pan and put the paper (parchment) in the pan.
- Take a bowl (deep) and beater to beat.
- Add 12 egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl (deep) and beat it till it gets incorporated.
- Beat them at medium-low speed for about one to two minutes and add the ¾ cup monk fruit powder slowly in between.
- Meanwhile increases its speed to medium high till it gets white and airy.
- Add the vanilla extract in the last and beat it just to combine.
- Take a bowl (medium) and add almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, sea salt, and ¾ cup of monk fruit powder in the bowl.
- If there are lumps in the mixture sift the mixture to another bowl.
- Include the almond flour mixture in the egg whites and incorporate both of them wholly.
- Transfer the batter of angle cake into the pan (tube) and tap the pan to eliminate the bubbles.
- Bake the angle cake for around 45 mints; until it sets and turns a lovely shade of brown.
- When the cake is completely cool down use the knife to detach it from the pan.
- Place the tube cake upside down on the rack and remove the (parchment) paper from it.
TIPS:
- Use a tube pan to give the structure to the cake.
- Do not grease the pan; it will fall off your cake, just place the paper in the pan to detach the cake easily.
- Use egg whites at room temperature because chilled egg whites will not get fluffy on beating.
- Flip the cake quickly and immediately because it will deflate soon if in the same position.
STORAGE INFORMATION:
FRIDGE:
- Put the cake slice in the sealed box and stock it up for two to three days.
FREEZER:
- Individually wrap the cake slices put them in the close container and stock it up for 2 months.
