How to Make Angel Food Cake Deluxe

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup (120g) cake flour and 1/2 cup (50g) powdered sugar. Set aside.
  3. In a large, clean, grease-free bowl, beat 12 large egg whites and 1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy.
  4. Gradually beat in 1 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, on high speed. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon almond extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt with the last addition of sugar.
  5. Continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. Do not underbeat.
  6. Gently fold in the flour-sugar mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
  7. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
  8. Gently cut through the batter with a spatula to remove any large air pockets.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Immediately invert the pan onto a heatproof funnel or bottle.
  11. Let the cake hang upside down until completely cool (at least 1-2 hours).
