How to Make Angie's Angel Food Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan; dust with powdered sugar and tap out excess.
- In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff, glossy peaks form. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff and glossy.
- Gently fold in the sifted flour and vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Immediately invert the pan onto a wire rack and let the cake cool completely upside down. This prevents the cake from collapsing.
- Once completely cool, gently remove the cake from the pan and dust with powdered sugar (optional).
