Soft lemon sponge cake

Overview

Sponge cake is a cake that you must learn to make if you are a baker. It tastes soft and delicate like a sponge. Novices sometimes suffer from the lack of molds. In fact, many kitchen supplies on hand can be fully utilized. Paper cups, silicone cups, and mugs are all molds for baking sponge cakes. For this small cake, I slightly changed it and added apple puree, which made the taste even better

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 First make the apple puree. Wash and peel the apples, cut into small cubes, add fine sugar, squeeze the juice of a lemon and sprinkle it on the apples

   

2. 2 Place a large bowl in the microwave and heat it over high heat. Take it out and stir it with a spoon every 2 minutes. Heat it for a total of 10 minutes. After it cools down slightly, use a mixer to beat it into a puree. Let it cool and set aside

   

3. 3 Prepare all the ingredients to make the cake. Leave 1/4 of an apple and cut it into thin slices (with the peel). Use the juice of one lemon in the apple puree. Shave off the lemon peel to make the cake. Mix milk and vegetable oil

   

4. 4 Mix 2 eggs with caster sugar and beat well with hand

   

5. 5 Prepare a basin filled with hot water, the temperature is about 80 degrees, sit the basin containing the egg liquid on the hot water, and the bottom of the basin is next to the water skin

   

6. 6 Across hot water, use a whisk to beat the egg liquid at high speed. During this period, test the temperature of the egg liquid with your hands. If it is about the same temperature as your hand, remove the hot water basin and continue to beat the egg liquid until it is thick. Lift the egg beater and the dripping egg liquid pattern will not disappear immediately

   

7. 7 Sprinkle lemon zest into the egg mixture, sift in the flour, and stir until roughly even,

   

8. 8 Take out 2 spatulas and put the egg batter into the bowl of milk and vegetable oil, mix well;

   

9. 9 Pour the mixed milk vegetable oil batter back into the original egg batter, and continue to mix evenly

   

10. 10 Pour the mixed batter into the mold until it is eighty full

    

11. 11 The oven adopts the upper and lower tube heating method. The upper tube is preheated at 180 degrees and the lower tube is 185 degrees. When the preheating is in place, the prompt sounds. Place the baking sheet in the middle layer of the oven and set the time for 15 minutes

    

12. 12 In the last 5 minutes, I saw that the surface of the cake was not colored, so I readjusted the temperature of the upper and lower tubes. Adjust the upper tube to 190 degrees and the lower tube to 180 degrees. Continue baking for 5 minutes. This is the advantage of adjusting the temperature at any time

    

13. 13 When the time is up, take out the baking pan. The clamps are now wider and more convenient to use. You can see that the surface of the cake is evenly colored.

    

14. 14 After the cake has cooled, put the apple puree into a piping bag, cut a small opening in the cake, squeeze in an appropriate amount of apple puree, and decorate the surface
