Cinnamon Cake (3 6” layers)
Ingredients
1 and 3/4 cups (200g) cake flour (spoon & leveled)
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
3 large egg whites, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (120g) full-fat sour cream at room temperature
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk at room temperature
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350° Spray cake tins with non-stick spray and line with parchment.
Whisk the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together. Set aside.
Beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
Add the sugar and beat on high speed for 2 minutes until creamed together.
Add the egg whites, vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed until combined, then beat in the sour cream.
