Blueberry Lemon Angel Food Cake Recipe
Ingredients
This delicious blueberry lemon angel food cake is light and airy. It’s a great dessert to make when you’re short on time. You will need the following ingredients to make this yummy cake:
- 1 cup cake flour
- 1 ½ cup granulated sugar, divided
- 1 ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 7 large egg whites, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
- Confectioners' sugar, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 10-inch tube pan with parchment paper. Sift the cake flour, 1 cup of the granulated sugar, cream of tartar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the egg whites on low speed until foamy. Increase the speed to medium and slowly add the remaining ½ cup granulated sugar. Beat until the whites hold stiff peaks. Add the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and beat until just combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg whites, folding gently with a rubber spatula until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cake and invert onto a plate. Cool completely before serving.
Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with fresh blueberries. Enjoy!
