PREPARATION
Step 1
Preheat the oven toย Preheat to 180 degrees top/bottom heat (fan oven: 160 degrees). Grease a springform pan (ร 26 cm) and dust with a little flour. For the dough, put the eggs, sugar and water in a metal mixing bowl and heat slightly over a water bath. Beat with the whisk attachment of a hand mixer until it forms a foamy egg white mixture.
Step 2
Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl, sieve onto baking paper and carefully fold into the egg white mixture in three portions using a dough spatula. Make sure to carefully fold in the dry ingredients by hand and not to stir too quickly so that the mixture remains nice and airy.
Step 3
Pour the sponge cake mixture into the prepared springform pan, smooth it out and bake in the preheated oven for around 20 minutes. After baking, let the base cool completely on a cake rack, then remove the springform pan edge.
