This pandan cake originates from Indonesia and Malaysia. It is a combination of Asian flavors with European cake baking influences.
Can you believe the green color is all natural? Pandan flavoring can be found in most Asian grocery stores and has a very subtle yet unique taste.
Its like eating a fluffy vanilla and almost hazelnut-tasting cake. The cake is like a cloud that melts in your mouth.
You can bake this cake in a bundt pan or a regular 9-inch cake tin depending on what you have available.
RECIPE:
INGREDIENTS:
4 eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon pandan flavoring
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
STEPS:
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F and line a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until they form stiff peaks.
