Equipment

1 x 7" tube pan (also called angel food cake pan)
1 x hand mixer or stand mixer

Ingredients

4 large eggs yolks and whites separated
½ cup organic cane sugar split into two
4 tablespoons avocado oil or any neutral tasting oil
¼ cup oat milk or any non dairy milk
1 teaspoon pandan extract
¼ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup rice flour I use superfine Thai rice flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder

Toppings (optional)

Coconut flakes
Powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 340°F/ 171°C.
Place the egg yolks and half of the sugar in a large bowl. Whisk well until pale and creamy.
Add in the avocado oil, oat milk, pandan extract and mix well.
Add in the salt, rice flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Mix until just combined.
In a different large bowl, place the egg whites and lightly whip up with a hand mixer or stand mixer for about 30 seconds. Add in the rest of the sugar in 3 portions, and whip up the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Add the whipped egg whites into the flour mix in three portions. Mix gently but thoroughly every time you add egg whites.
Pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 40 - 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Cool the cake upside down, resting the pan over a wine bottle, or a wired rack. To remove from the pan, run a knife along the wall of the pan. Slice and sprinkle powdered sugar and coconut flakes (optional).
