Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.

4. Fold in 1/3 cup cake flour and 1/4 cup milk. Add 1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
5. Gently fold the meringue into the yolk mixture in three parts to maintain volume.

8. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
9. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with whipped cream and fresh fruit.
