How to Make Lavender Angel Food Cake With Fresh Strawberries

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch angel food cake pan; dust with powdered sugar and tap out excess.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cake flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg whites in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  5. Stir in the lavender buds, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Invert the pan onto a wire rack and let the cake cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, slice and serve with fresh strawberries and a dusting of powdered sugar. You can also garnish with whipped cream or other fresh berries like blackberries, raspberries, or blueberries.
