Microwave Gluten-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake image

This is one of the fluffier gluten-free cakes I have ever had. We discovered it by accident when experimenting. Works good to turn cake over and ice for parties or events. Makes a good half-soccer ball cake.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cake to rise evenly and prevent curdling.
  • Sift the flour before measuring it. This will help to aerate the flour and make the cake lighter.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter and make the cake more tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Fold in the flour mixture gently until just combined. Over-mixing will toughen the cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and fluffy sponge cake that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned baker, this recipe is sure to impress. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this sponge cake recipe a try.
