Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 12 large Egg Whites Ensure they are fresh.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Consider using coconut sugar for a healthier twist.
  • 1 cup Cake Flour Whole wheat pastry flour works well as a substitute.
  • 2 cups Raspberries Fresh or properly thawed for best taste.
For Dusting and Topping
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar Optional for a cleaner look.
  • 1 cup Whipped Cream Substitute with coconut whipped cream for dairy-free.

Equipment

  • 10-inch tube pan
  • Electric Mixer
  • rubber spatula
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 10-inch tube pan by ensuring it is ungreased.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric mixer on medium speed until frothy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and whip until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Sift together the cake flour and powdered sugar in a separate bowl. Gently fold this mixture into the whipped egg whites using a rubber spatula.
  4. Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries, ensuring even distribution without breaking them.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan, smooth the top, and bake for approximately 30-35 minutes until lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Invert the pan immediately after baking and allow to cool for about 1-2 hours.
  7. Once cool, remove the cake from the pan and transfer to a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream if desired.
