Recipe for sponge cake (cake in 5 minutes)
Craving some cake? In just a few minutes, you can make your own sponge cake.
However, it requires some equipment, as you’ll use a siphon bottle to inject air into the batter and a microwave to cook it.
The cake can be a bit bland on its own, but paired with a crunchy element and a cream/ice cream, it’s a guaranteed hit. For instance, this delicious dessert could be a great choice.

Sponge cake (cake in 5 minutes)
Craving cake? In just a few minutes, you can make your own sponge cake.However, it does require some equipment since you need a siphon bottle to inject air into the batter and a microwave to cook it.
Equipment
- Bowl
- Immersion Hand Blender
- Sieve
- Siphon
- Microwave
- Knife
Ingredients
- 4 pcs. Egg
- 25 gram Sugar
- 25 gram Wheat Flour
- 25 gram Grape Seed Oil or another oil
- 2 gram Cardamom or other spices
- Lemon Zest from 1 lemon, untreated/organic
Instructions
- Put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix them together. It's easiest to use an immersion blender and a tall immersion blender jug. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve because it is crucial to avoid lumps. They will clog your siphon bottle. Put the cap on the bottle and give it two shots with gas cartridges. Shake the siphon vigorously. Make a couple of holes in the bottom of a paper cup (I usually use a meat skewer for this). Spray the contents from the siphon bottle into the cup. Only fill the cup 2/3 of the way with the batter. Cook it for 50-60 seconds at full power in the microwave. Take it out and turn it upside down on a rack to cool for 1-2 minutes. Use a regular knife and cut down both sides so it releases, and voila, you have a nice sponge cake. Continue the process with the other paper cups. I think it is best enjoyed when torn into pieces and placed in various spots on a dessert plate, somewhat like in this recipe: Espresso pasta with foam and chocolate cake. Bon appétit.
