Name: Sponge Cake
Prep time: PT1 hourM

Ingredients

3 eggs;
pinch of salt;
¾ cup Chelsea Caster Sugar
1 cup Edmonds Standard Grade Flour
1 tsp Edmonds Baking Powder
50g butter, melted (or Olivani Spread)

Method

Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Lightly butter a 20cm square cake tin and line the base with baking paper.
Beat the eggs with the salt until very foamy, this will take about one minute with an electric beater. Add the sugar gradually, beating very well, and keep beating for about 5 minutes until the mixture is very pale and fluffy.
Sift together the flour and baking powder, then sift them again onto the egg mixture. Fold the flour gently into the egg and lastly fold through the melted butter.
When everything is well combined, pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the sponge cake is golden, well risen and springs back when lightly touched.
Place on a wire rack to cool.

Made this twice and both times it fell and got very dense! Probably the cake tin I was using, but something to watch out for. Still delicious

Easy, great instructions. Not sure if it's my oven, but golden on top at 20 minutes, but base still needed a bit more, and had to cover with foil for 3 more minutes.
