Vanilla Angel Food Cake
There’s just something about Angel Food Cake, so light, delicate and the melt in your mouth taste. It’s always the perfect complement to fresh Berries and custards.
The trouble with making a good Angel Food Cake is 1 dozen egg whites. Eggs are pretty cheap as far as ingredients go but I just can’t waste 12 yolks. And finding a recipe or 2 that uses up the yolks at the same time I want Angel Food Cake isn’t as easy as you’d think.
But you know, those 12 egg white recipes make a large tube pan cake. And then I have to make sure that we eat all of that light and delicious cake. Waste not, want not, right?
Or I can just make a smaller recipe, one that works for a loaf pan, only uses half the eggs, and disappears in no time.

ahhh Angel food cake, so yummy and so summery!
This looks fantastic! I love that it’s smaller and uses less egg whites.
This is a recipe I can deal with, smaller isn’t bad most of the time.
Less eggs was a big plus for me, thanks! π

This looks so great! Will be pinning and making this later! I hate wasting egg yokes too π
angel food is the one cake that I really DO like!! a lot, and I love it in a loaf pan
I really like angel food cake because it’s so much lower in fat and calories but, the truth is, I HATE separating eggs. It’s one of my least favorite kitchen tasks and the thought of doing a dozen makes this cake not happen. But I like your smaller version. Maybe I can talk myself into separating 6 eggs. π
Yummm! What a great recipe! Angel Food Cake is my favorite! π Stopping by from the Weekend Wrap-Up Party at Tatertots & Jello! So glad to have found you and this recipe! π
This looks great, I’d like to make angel food cupcakes and this looks like the recipe I normally use for angel food cake but just cut in half…that’s a good place to start. Oh, and I never crack an egg when I make angel food cake, I hate the waste too, I always buy the egg whites in a carton.
Yum, I can’t think of a better way to eat angel food cake!
My dad loved angel food cake. I haven’t made one in years.
Thanks for the shoutout of my Zabaglione Italian Custard too!
Renee, it’s been at least 25 years since I’ve had a good Zabaglione, your recipe is on my Must Make list!
