Preparation time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 45 minutes

Total: 55 minutes.

 

This recipe can serve six people.

 

Ingredients:

• Four egg whites at room temperature

• Pinch of salt

• A quarter teaspoon of cream of tartar

• 100 grams of white sugar

• Four egg yolks

• 10 grams of water

• 10 grams of oil

• Half a teaspoon of vanilla extract

• 100 grams of sifted cake flour

 

Instructions:

1. Put a piece of baking paper into the rice cooker’s pan. This will help prevent the cake from sticking onto the cooker.

 

2. Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt at medium speed, stopping until you see large bubbles. Add tartar and whip at medium speed again, stopping once the egg white is foamy.

 

3. Add sugar little by a little while beating the mixture at medium-low speed. When you have added all the sugar, set the mixing speed to the highest setting, stopping once the egg white is at its almost stiff peak.

 

4. Add egg yolks one at a time, incorporating it at the lowest speed. Mix in water, oil, and vanilla extract, then add the liquid mixture a little at a time, again at the lowest speed.

 

5. Sift 1/3 amount of flour in the bowl, then mix at the lowest speed again. Do so until the flour is just about incorporated, then add the next 1/3 portion of flour, again mixing until it’s well mixed. Repeat this step with the last portion of flour.

 

6. Using a spatula, fold the mixture, scraping sides and bottom of the bowl.

 

7. Gently pour the batter into the rice cooker pan, flattening the batter’s surface with a whisk or spatula. Tap the cake on the counter to remove any large bubble that has formed.

 

8. Cook the cake in the rice cooker. Set it for about 10 to 13 minutes. Once the rice cooker changes to the “warm” setting, press cook again and do this two more times, or until the cake is ready. It would take about 30 to 40 minutes.

 

9. The cake should feel springy and elastic if you slightly press on it. Use a knife to quickly remove the cake’s sides and release it from the pan by flipping it over on the wire rack. Remove the parchment paper underneath. Let it cool before serving.

 

10. Slice the cake and enjoy!

 

Pro-Tips for Better a Sponge Cake

Here are some quick pro-tips to follow for an even better outcome:

 

– Remember not to over mix the eggs, as it would end up being stiffer if it were whisked after it reaches its peak.

 

– Your rice cooker might have a cake option. Use it! If not, then have it “cook” for at least half an hour. Check it to see if it’s cooked by then. If still too soft, then cook it for another 10 minutes until set.

 

– The sponge cake might look plain at first, but add a twist to it by pairing it with ice cream or fruits. Top it with whipped cream as well and serve with coffee or milk.
