Ingredients
Let’s see the ingredients we need to prepare the Margherita cake.
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 7 tbsp butter
- 3/4 cup type 1 flour
- 3/4 cup potato starch
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 pinch fine salt
- 1 lemon zest (grated)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp powdered sugar (for topping – optional)
Tools
- 1 Cake Pan
- 1 Spatula
- Electric Whisks
- 1 Mixing Bowl
Steps
In a bowl, place the softened butter and sugar.
Mix these two ingredients well with a fork or electric whisks.
Crack the three eggs and start adding them one at a time, continuing to mix with the whisks.
Add the flour, the starch, and the sifted baking powder.
Add them slowly to avoid airborne powder due to the whisks.
Add a pinch of salt, the grated lemon zest, and the milk gradually.
Continue mixing with the whisks to obtain a smooth and creamy mixture.
Grease and flour a 8-9 inch cake pan and pour in the batter.
Level the mixture in the pan and bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 30 minutes.
Each of us should adjust according to the power of our own oven.
Before finishing baking, do the toothpick test.
A dusting of powdered sugar and enjoy this soft cloud of goodness.
