👩🏻‍🍳 Instructions

3️⃣ Sift the flour 🌾 and baking powder 🥄 three times. Add them gradually in three steps ➗, folding gently with a spatula 🥄.
4️⃣ Add the beaten egg whites 🥚 in several steps, folding slowly 🔄 to keep the batter airy 🎈.
5️⃣ Pour the batter into a 25 cm round cake pan 🍰. Tap lightly with a skewer 🍢 or knife 🔪 to release air bubbles 💨.
6️⃣ Bake in a preheated oven 🔥 at 150°C (300°F) for about 50 minutes ⏱️.
