- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
- Beat Eggs and Sugar:
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together using an electric mixer until the mixture becomes pale, thick, and tripled in volume. This may take about 5-7 minutes.
- Fold in Flour:
Sift the all-purpose flour over the beaten egg and sugar mixture. Gently fold the flour into the mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
- Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool:
Allow the sponge cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optional:
Once cooled, you can dust the sponge cake with powdered sugar, frost it, or add your favorite toppings.
