Angel Food Cake (gluten free, dairy free, low FODMAP)

Last updated on 9.11.2023

It tastes like heaven and it’s light as a cloud. It literally just melts in your mouth. Angel food cake is traditionally made in a ring tin, but we make it in a loaf pan, since we usually tear it apart and use it as a base for other recipes (trifle, tiramisu) anyway. Of course any leftovers are amazing with fresh berries 🍓 and whipped cream, ice cream 🍦 or even just plain.
.
Tip: Practice your vigorous whipping and your careful folding for the ultimate fluffiness.

This recipe is for a 340 g loaf. The whole loaf is ca 1000 kcal.
