If you are looking for a tasty and traditional dessert to serve during Passover, this sponge cake is the perfect choice! Made with simple ingredients, this cake is light, fluffy, and bursting with flavor. Follow the recipe below to make your own Passover sponge cake.
Ingredients:
- 6 eggs, separated
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup potato starch
- 1/4 cup matzo meal
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch (23-cm) tube pan and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until creamy and pale yellow. Gradually add in the potato starch, matzo meal, vegetable oil, orange juice, orange zest, and salt. Mix well until everything is fully combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves, slice, and serve. Your Passover sponge cake is ready to enjoy!
