Instructions For Making Angel Food Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine egg whites and cream of tartar. Beat until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add granulated sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Mix in vanilla and almond extracts.
- Sift the cake flour and salt together, then gently fold into the egg white mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the batter.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the cake is lightly golden and springs back when touched.
- Remove from the oven and invert the pan immediately to cool the cake upside down until completely cooled.
- Once cooled, carefully run a knife around the edges to release the cake from the pan. Slice and serve.
