Blender Sponge Cake, or Bizcocho en Licuadora, is a quick, fluffy, and delicious cake that requires minimal effort. Instead of traditional mixing methods, this recipe uses a blender to create a smooth, airy batter, making it perfect for beginners or those who want a hassle-free baking experience. The result is a light, moist sponge cake with a delicate crumb, ideal for serving with coffee, tea, or fresh fruit.
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Preparing the Blender Mixture
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a blender, add eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and milk.
- Blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds, until smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Adding Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the blender, blending in short pulses until fully incorporated. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.
Step 3: Baking the Cake
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Step 4: Serving
- Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar or serve with fresh fruit and whipped cream.
- Slice and enjoy with coffee or tea for a delightful treat.
