ANGEL FOOD CAKE

ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Ingredients:

1/2 cup rice flour
1/4 cup corn starch
1/4 cup potato starch
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

14 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon GF vanilla (or any other flavoring - I like almond)

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Sift together the rice flour, corn starch, potato starch, powdered sugar and salt. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl whip the egg whites until they are foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form. Add the sugar, a tablespoon at a time. Continue beating until the whites will stand in stiff peaks. Add the flavorings.

Gently fold in the dry ingredients, by hand, a few tablespoons at a time. Pour into an ungreased 8" tube pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes.

Invert the cake when taken from the oven. Let cool completely before removing from the pan.

But you might ask, what do I do with all those egg yokes?! See the recipe for Lemon Curd.
