Sponge Cake (Banh Bong Lan)

Before we get started, take a look at this beautiful image of the finished cake:

Ingredients

4 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon baking powder
Pinch of salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. The mixture should be pale and have increased in volume.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, being careful not to deflate the batter.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and vegetable oil until warm, then remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Slowly add the warm mixture to the batter, folding gently until fully combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, you can frost with your favorite icing or enjoy it plain, perhaps with a dusting of powdered sugar on top.

This Sponge Cake is soft, airy, and utterly delicious. It’s perfect for any gathering or as a treat for yourself. Enjoy the process of baking and most importantly, enjoy every slice of this sweet delight!
