A really light and simple fat free sponge cake.
Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • 60g caster sugar
  • 60g gluten free plain flour (I used Doves Farm)
  • 70-100ml double cream
  • 3 kiwi fruit, peeled and sliced
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (fan oven)
  2. Grease the base of a 20cm, round cake tin then line the base with baking parchment
  3. Place the eggs and caster sugar into a large bowl and whisk them together using an electric hand whisk on a high setting for about 3-5 minutes until the mixture has become pale, very thick and has tripled in size
  4. Sift the flour into the bowl containing the egg and sugar and using a large metal spoon, gently fold the flour in so as not to knock any air out of the mixture
  5. Using a spatula transfer the cake mix from the bowl into the cake tin and put into the oven for approximately 15 minutes until golden brown.
  6. To test if it's ready, open the oven and gently press your hand onto the top of the cake, if you leave a hand print it's not ready so give it another few minutes
  7. Remove the cake and turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before adding the topping
  8. Lightly whisk the double cream until it thickens, then spread it in a thin layer over the cake and top with the sliced kiwi fruit.
