Why is my chiffon cake so wet?

Feb 20, 2007 1 Replies

Hi,



I use the following recipe to bake a chiffon cake, but I find that the cake is too wet and sticks together when I cut it:



These ingredients are mixed together



200g Self Raising Flour
8 egg yolks
100g caster sugar
6 tablespoons corn oil
4 tablespoons water
1 cup banana puree

These are whisked together



8 egg whites
100g caster sugar half teaspoon cream of tartar

The egg white is mixed with the flour mixture and baked at 150 deg C for about 1 hour.



Could anyone give me some advice what I should do?



Thank you


Try to use cake flour instead of SRF. and add baking powder .
