Maple Nut Angel Food Cake image

A lady from our church on Vancouver Island brought this to potluck and everyone went crazy for it!! It is very good and I love the crunchiness from the walnuts. I wanted to use up about 2 cups of egg whites I had sitting in the fridge....this is a pic of the cake I made today!!

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 c cake flour...i didn't have any so i used organic unbleached white flour
3/4 c packed brown sugar
1 1/2 c egg whites
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp maple flavored extract
1 c sugar
3/4 c finely chopped walnuts...i use my slap chopper...works great!!

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift together flour and sugar.Set aside. In a large bowl beat egg whites with salt and cream of tartar till soft peaks form. Add the vanilla and maple flavoring. Add the sugar a little at a time and beat till stiff. Gradually fold the flour/sugar into egg whites about a 1/4 at a time. Spread half of batter into tube pan and sprinkle with the chopped walnuts. Using a knife cut through to mix in nuts. Add the the rest of the batter. Bake about 35 mins. Cool inverted on a wire rack.
  • 2. There is no need to use any frosting on this cake as it is great without it but I mixed up enough powdered sugar with some milk and about 1/2 tsp maple flavor extract to make a thin drizzle which I did put on the cake. I then sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top.

I used a different brand of maple syrup and the cake turned out a bit too dark.

I'm not a fan of nuts, so I omitted them from the recipe. The cake was still delicious.

This cake was a disaster! It didn't rise properly and was dense and dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
