Preparation step by step
Total cooking time: 12 minutes
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Rest time: 0 minutes
Cooking time: 12 minutes
STEP 1:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (thermostat 5) for even baking of the cakes.
STEP 2:
In a mixing bowl, mix 100 g of flour and 125 g of icing sugar until you achieve a homogeneous texture.
STEP 3:
Then add 5 eggs at room temperature, incorporating them one by one to prevent the mixture from becoming grainy.
STEP 4:
Continue to beat the mixture until the dough becomes smooth and slightly airy, ensuring good rising during baking.
STEP 5:
Pour the preparation into a previously buttered or lined pan to prevent the cake from sticking.
STEP 6:
Bake for 12 minutes, then check the cooking by inserting a knife into the center of the cake.
STEP 7:
When the cake is golden and the blade comes out clean, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before unmolding.
The preparation of cakes at thermostat 5 requires special attention to baking temperatures and ingredients. To ensure a successful result, it is recommended to measure accurately each component, ensuring that the eggs and fats are at room temperature to avoid lumps in the batter. Preheating the oven to 180°C is essential for achieving even cooking.
Each type of mold affects the cooking time; for instance, silicone molds often require a slight adjustment to the temperature. Don’t forget to trust your senses; when the cake is well browned and the center is cooked, it’s time to take it out of the oven.
