Ingredients

  • 7 eggs, separated
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas
  • 3/4 cup matzo cake flour
  • 1/4 cup potato flour
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325° F.
  • Beat egg yolks with sugar until light and creamy.
  • Combine salt, mashed bananas, cake flour and potato flour. Add to beaten egg yolk mixture.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter.
  • Fold in chopped nuts and pour mixture into an angel cake pan or spring form.
  • Bake 40-45 minutes.
  • Frost as desired.

Notes

Eggs are easier to separate when cold. Once separated, let whites and yolks sit out until they reach room temperature as at that point the whites whip better and become more voluminous.
