  • eggs – 5 pcs
  • sugar – 140 g
  • flour – 140 g
  • optional + 1 tsp. baking powder, this will add height

Method of preparation:

2. Add the flour in two batches and mix very gently clockwise with a spatula from the bottom to the top until the flour is all dispersed in the dough.

3. Immediately pour the finished dough into a parchment-lined baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 175 C for 35-40 minutes

4. Let it cool slightly in the open oven, then take the sponge cake out of the mold, then put it in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours so that it cuts well and does not crumble!
