Zubereitung von Aunt Ida's Passover Sponge Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan, or line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes using an electric mixer).
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, potato starch, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
