Ingredients
- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 7 oz. (200g) castor sugar or fine sugar, do not use icing or powdered sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 6 oz. (170g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 oz. (28g) oil vegetable oil or canoli oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Whip the eggs, caster sugar, and salt with a wire whisk at medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Fold in the sifted flour mixture (all-purpose flour and baking powder) using a rubber spatula until well combined. Finally, add the oil and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
- Pour the batter into paper-lined muffin tins and bake on the middle rack of the oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove the cakes from the oven immediately after baking and set aside to cool.
Notes
- Ensure eggs and other ingredients are at room temperature; beat the eggs until frothy for a light, airy texture.
- Gentle mixing of batter: Avoid overmixing the batter after adding flour. This will ensure the cakes will turn out soft and fluffy.
- Bake the cake on the middle rack of the oven to ensure even heat distribution and airflow. This allows the cake to rise evenly, with the gorgeous domed top.
- Bake the cakes for 20 mins. Don’t open the oven door to prevent deflation.
- Line the muffin pan with paper cupcake liners for easy baking.
