Easy Oil-free Sponge Cake

I was making my own decorated roll cake recipe, so I wanted to make my own sponge cake for use in roll cakes and regular cakes. It's not as tall as sponge cakes with butter in them, but it's fluffy.
When mixing in the flour, over-mixing will cause bubbles to form in the cake, preventing it from fully expanding, but if you under-mix, the cake will become crumbly. Try stirring about the number of times suggested here. After making it a few times, you can find the balance you like the best. Recipe by Rearea cheese

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sift the flour two or three times. Line the cake pan with parchment paper. If you lightly grease it with oil, it will stick nicely.
- 2
Preheat the oven to 170°C.
- 3
Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed. Add the sugar in 2 to 3 parts, beating well with each addition.
- 4
Once stiff peaks form, beat in one egg yolk at a time on high speed.
- 5
When it has all mixed together, beat for 1-1:30 minutes on low speed to smooth the batter.
- 6
Next, add the milk and mix lightly.
- 7
Then, add all the flour and mix together with a whisk. It should be thick enough to lift up and fall off the whisk. You can also use a spatula.
- 8
Stir 30-35 times until no longer powdery, it's evenly blended, and becomes glossy.
- 9
Pour the batter into the pan. Pour from a little high up so that air bubbles do not form in the batter. Lightly tap the edges of the pan 2 or 3 times, then bake at 170°C for 30-35 minutes.
- 10
If a skewer or toothpick inserted doesn't come out clean, bake for an additional five minutes while keeping an eye on it.
- 11
Once baked, drop onto a table from a height of about 20 cm to deflate.
- 12
Flip upside down onto a cooling rack and remove the paper. Cover with a moistened and tightly wrung kitchen towel and let cool.
- 13
Once completely cooled, place in a plastic bag and store in the refrigerator.
- 14
For a chocolate sponge cake, use 70 g of flour and 10 g of cocoa for the 18 cm cake, and 50 g of flour and 10 g of cocoa for the 15 cm cake.
- 15
To make a matcha cake, replace the cocoa with matcha powder (as in Step 14).

This is an easy cake that is a snack for my child and me.It may be a little different from a chiffon cake... but it is delicious, my child loves it, and it is very simple to make it, so it's a great recipe.It has a gentle fragrance of eggs and my child, who does not like regular sponge cakes loves this cake and says it tastes like castella (Japanese sponge cake).If you use an electric mixer, you can make this cake in about 30-40 minutes from preparation to finish.It's just so easy.Feel at ease making it.The cake will be a bit springy, but if you are having it for a snack, bread flour is good enough. The texture will be similar to castella, Japanese sponge cake. You do not even need to sift it. If you are using cake flour, sift before using it. Recipe by tama-ma cookpad.japan -
Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake
I really wanted my daughter who is allergic to eggs to be able to eat a decorative fluffy sponge cake.Egg-free cakes tend to be chewy and heavy rather than fluffy so I tried aiming for a cake that's fluffy but not dried out.I added in cocoa to cover up the taste of the baking powder. If you're making a decorated one, though, with other ingredients topped on it, you could also try preparing it without the cocoa.When you add the vinegar at Step 5, the batter will begin to expand quite quickly so please mix it in and get the batter in the oven as quickly as possible.

Egg and Oil Free, Steamed Sponge Cake with Honey and Milk Egg and Oil Free, Steamed Sponge Cake with Honey and Milk
This recipe is for my first son who loves steamed sponge cakes. I've tried different versions, but he seems to like this egg and oil-free version.If there's lots of water when steaming, the tops will break apart and be fluffy. If the amount is rather small, the texture will be chewy.I steam the cakes with my frying pan. If the pan is deep enough, I feel like it's easier to clean up.I burned my kitchen towel before, so I tried steaming without it and wasn't a problem at all so that's why I'm not using it in my recipe.

I confess that I was really inspired by a book called "A Book That Answers your Why? Questions About Making Sweets" by Kazuyoshi Aihara. I highly recommend you read the book for further details.I reduced the calories of the recipe listed in the book as much as possible.There are 4 important key points; if you do these properly, then you can make a beautiful sponge cake. If you use the same ingredients in the exact same order, then this is the key to not failing in mixing it. If you remember this, then there is nothing to fear. *When beating the eggs, please add in vanilla essence if you like. Recipe by Osshosan cookpad.japan -
