Whole Wheat Angel Food Cake

List of Ingredients




1 C sifted whole-wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 C natural, unprocessed sugar
12 egg whites (1 3/4 C) at room temperature
1 ½ tsp. cream of tartar
1 ½ tsp. vanilla
¼ tsp. salt


Recipe



1. On a piece of waxed paper, combine 1 C sifted flour and ¾ C sugar. Sift combined ingredients several times. (If you do not have a sifter, use a metal sieve.)

2. In large mixer bowl, place egg whites, cream of tartar, vanilla, and salt. (Use a deep, straight-sided glass or metal bowl; do not use a plastic bowl since the oils retained in the plastic may prevent the egg whites from forming peaks.) Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until soft peaks form (tips curl over).

3. Gradually add the remaining ¾ C sugar to egg whites, 2 tablespoons at a time. Continue beating on high speed until whites form stiff peaks that stand straight when beaters are removed.

4. Remove mixer bowl from stand. Sift about ¼ of the flour-sugar mixture over beaten whites. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the flour just until blended. (If mixer bowl is very full, transfer to a large bowl that has been thoroughly washed to remove any traces of oil.)

5. Turn the batter into an ungreased two-piece, 10-inch tube pan. Using a rubber spatula, distribute the batter evenly around the pan.

6. Place the pan on the oven rack as near to the center of the oven as possible. Bake in 375 degree F. oven for 30-35 minutes or until cake is nicely browned and springs back without leaving an imprint when lightly touched.

7. Remove cake from oven. Invert cake in pan and place on the counter to thoroughly cool. (If pan doesn't have long enough 'legs,' invert pan and set tube over a bottle to cool.)

8. To remove cake, set pan right side up. With a narrow spatula, loosen the cake from the sides of the pan and the center tube. Hold onto the center tube and lift out the removable insert. Slide a narrow spatula between the cake and the bottom of the insert. Place a plate over the cake and invert, letting it slip off the tube.
