Healthy Coffee Angel Food Cake Recipe
  • Prep: 20 min. Bake: 35 min. + cooling
  • Yield: 12 Servings
20 35 55

Ingredients

  • 12 egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
  • 2 tablespoons boiling water
  • 1-1/4 cups cake flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar

Directions

  • Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. In a small bowl, dissolve coffee granules in boiling water; set aside. Sift flour and sugar together twice; set aside.
  • Add the cream of tartar, extracts, salt and coffee mixture to egg whites; beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add brown sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Gradually fold in flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time.
  • Gently spoon into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets. Bake on the lowest oven rack at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until lightly browned and entire top appears dry. Immediately invert pan; cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • Run a knife around side and center tube of pan. Remove cake to a serving plate. Yield: 12 servings.
