Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup gluten free all purpose flour I use King Arthur Gluten Free Measure for Measure
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar confectioner's sugar
  • 12 egg white from large eggs
  • 1½ teaspoons cream of tartar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoons almond extract do not omit this!
  • 1 cup granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Separate egg whites into bowl of stand mixer and then let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes
  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Sift flour, cornstarch, and powdered sugar together and set aside. If you don’t have a sifter, you can sift through a fine mesh strainer or pulse the mixture in your food processor for a few seconds
  • Using a whisk attachment, beat egg whites on high speed until they start to foam, and then add in salt and cream of tartar (keep the mixer running)
  • Add the vanilla and almond extracts while continuing to whip
  • Slowly add in the granulated sugar while mixer is still running. Continue to whip until stiff peaks form (the whole whipping process takes about 12 minutes)
  • Slowly fold in the dry ingredients you had set aside about ¼ cup at a time using a rubber spatula. Be sure to do this slowly and carefully so you don’t deflate the egg whites
  • Scoop mixture into ungreased bundt pan and bake at 350°F for about 35-45 minutes, until lightly golden
  • Place pan face down on cooling rack after pulling it out of oven and allow it to cool completely before running a knife along the edges and removing the cake
  • Serve with fresh whipped cream and berries!
