Passion fruit sponge cake

I know it's been a little while since my last blog post... Children are so time consuming! Today I thought I would share with a recipe I found from coles. It's a passion fruit sponge cake. The cake uses corn flour, which makes it gluten free, and the passion fruit in the icing make the cake delicious. It's also dairy free.



Ingredients

3 eggs
1/2 cup castor sugar
3/4 cup gf corn flour
1 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup passion fruit pulp
1 cup icing sugar
2 tsp nuttlex

Method
1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees. Grease and line a 20cm round tin.
2. Using an electric mixer, place eggs in the bowl and whisk until firm, to form soft peaks. Place castor sugar into a sieve and slowly add, in small quantities, to the eggs while blending.3. In a separate bowl, sift cornflour, baking powder and salt. Sift again into egg and sugar mix. To combine, use a large spoon and slowly add a little at a time and then fold
4. Pour into the tin and bake for 20 minutes or until cooked. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool
5. For icing, combine passionfruit pulp, icing sugar and unsalted butter and beat until smooth.
6. Serve with slices of mango and strawberries.
