Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This step is crucial because I want the cake to bake evenly. Next, I whip together the eggs and sugar until fluffy and pale, then add vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, I combine the flour, baking powder, and salt, slowly introducing these dry ingredients into the wet mixture. It’s important to fold gently to keep all that lovely air in!
