  • Today, I’m guiding you through how to make the incredibly fluffy and moist vanilla chiffon cake! You’ll only need 6 simple ingredients (one of them is water!), which you can get at any grocery store. This fluffy, like a cloud chiffon cake, melts in your mouth. I always end up eating a few slices! Let us know if you tried it at home, how it turned out, and how you enjoyed it for your special event! I am also answering a lot of questions I’ve got through the past years about chiffon cake, such as “Why didn’t my chiffon cake rise much?”, “Why did it deflate?”, “Can I use all-purpose flour instead?”… and many more!
    📌 Ingredients To Make Vanilla Chiffon Cake
    For a 7-inch chiffon cake pan (the bottom: 6-inch, the top: 7-inch)
    • Egg yolk: 70 g (4 yolks)
    • Vanilla beans: 1/2 pod (or vanilla extract: 1/2 tsp)
    • Granulated sugar for yolks: 25 g (2 Tbsp)
    • Water: 60 g (1/4 cup)
    • Oil: 40 g (1/6 cup)
    • Cake flour: 80 g (2/3 cup) *Use all-purpose as an alternative.
    • Egg white: 132 g (4 eggs)
    • Granulated sugar for egg whites: 50 g (1/4 cup)
    Bake (Preheated) at 340ºF (171ºC) for about 40 minutes.
    * Adjust the baking time, depending on the size of the pan, thickness of the batter, oven, etc.
    NOTE: For best results, measure ingredients with a scale. All recipes are designed with weighed ingredients using grams/ounces. Cup measurements (US customary units) are provided for your convenience.

    You may try to whip the egg whites less stiff (i.e. to medium peaks) for a finer crumb.

      @PastryLivingwithAya  2 місяці тому

      Just a little bit softer meringue works fine for the recipe. I like whipping it that much, especially because I want to make it tall😊

    Can you show us how to convert a chiffon cake (like your 7 inches pan) to a bigger size pan, like an 10inches pan. Thanks

    • @PastryLivingwithAya
      @PastryLivingwithAya  2 місяці тому

      Thank you! It really is super soft😊 I would double a recipe for a 9-inch pan (the top diameter), so you could do a little bit more for a 10 inch pan if you like! It takes longer to bake the cake with a bigger pan, I would check from about 50 minutes with a 10-inch pan. The top should shrinks a bit just like in the video, when the center is cooked through.

    In your Fluffy Strawberry cream cake, chiffon cake video you whipped the egg whites to medium peaks and not stiff peaks, are these both still considered chiffon cakes? Just wanted to understand the difference.
    Also, does mixing the flour until no lumps cause gluten formation and a chewy cake? Thank you.

    Question - In many recipe such as this one (whipping egg yolk w sugar) u use a lot of "hand" whipped for a long time. Can you use mixer at low speed instead? What is the difference? I use mixer while mixing the custard and it seems to be fine.
    Your explanation with the chart of diff types of sponge cake is awesome! Thank you.

    • @PastryLivingwithAya
      @PastryLivingwithAya  2 місяці тому +1

      You totally can! I hand-whip it often, just because it's relatively quick and I have one less thing to wash later😅 I also needed some exercise for my dull body😁

    What is tge best way to clean the same type of sifter in the video? I always have residue.
    What causes an eggy bottom after it is baked.

    • @PastryLivingwithAya
      @PastryLivingwithAya  Місяць тому

      I hear you! I use a shower head attached to the sink or use a dishwasher. When I need to wash my hands, I run water on both sides, from different angles, to drop the residue stuck😁
      When the cake is eggy on the bottom, I think it means it is slightly underbaked, and the cake sinks more because of this. Try baking it a little bit longer the next time! - The surface of the cake should shrink slightly when the center is fully cooked. (Check the video to see how that looks like!)

    May I ask if you would recommend I use a silicone tube pan instead. Because I have so much trouble removing the chiffon cake from an ungreased chiffon pan. Any advise?

    • @PastryLivingwithAya
      @PastryLivingwithAya  2 місяці тому

      The cake deflates more with a silicone pan, so I would not recommend it if you want to keep it a bit taller and fluffier. I recommend an aluminium tube pan. I'm showing how I remove the cake from the pan in the video, you can do it easily in that way!
