Best Whole Wheat Angel Food Cake Recipes

WHOLE WHEAT ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• If you're not using whole wheat pastry flour, whirr the flour in a blender, food processor or other grinder until fine (This might be kind of hard, but it won't be the end of the world if its not super-fine).
• Sift together flour and cornstarch in a small bowl.
• Mix in 3/4 cup sugar with a fork or wisk.
• You want this to be aerated, so you can probably even sift in the sugar with the cornstarch and flour, if you want.
• Place the egg whites in a mixing bowl and add salt and cream of tartar.
• Beat until whites form soft peaks.
• Gradually add remaining 3/4 cup sugar and extract (s) and beat until mixed.
• Not beating, gently fold in about 1/3 of flour mixture at a time (a large rubber spatula is best for this).
• Pour into angel food cake pan and bake for about 1 hour or until cake is springy when poked.

Then I top it with fresh strawberries and bananas mixed into a small amount of store-bought strawberry sauce. (Marie Calendar's sauce is excellent). Then I line the edges with kiwifruit slices. This makes a beautifully delicious "A-" to "B+" Choice birthday cake. **This is not a diabetic recipe and may not encourage excess fat loss in individuals who are highly resistant to fat loss.
