Ingredients

1 cup cake flour, sifted
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
12 large egg whites
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
Whipped cream for serving

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Make sure to have a non-stick angel food cake pan ready.
In a large bowl, combine the cake flour and 1 cup of the granulated sugar. Mix well and set aside.
In another mixing bowl, whip the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt until soft peaks form. This step is crucial for that perfect fluffy texture.
Gradually add the remaining sugar while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. This will give your cake that wonderful volume.
Gently fold in the vanilla and almond extracts into the egg whites.
Next, carefully sift the flour mixture over the egg whites in three additions. Using a spatula, fold it in gently to maintain the airy texture.
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Make sure not to tap it down—let that lightness shine through!
Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and immediately invert the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely before removing from the pan.
Once cool, slice the cake and serve with fresh strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream on top.

This Strawberry Angel Food Cake is perfect for any dinner party or summer gathering. Its light and fluffy texture combined with the sweetness of strawberries makes it a delightful dessert that everyone will enjoy. So go ahead, treat yourself and your loved ones to this delicious treat!
