Depending on what you're making, génoise is baked in either a 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan or a 9-inch springform pan. For the Sherried Banana-Strawberry Trifle and Triple-Lemon Génoise with Buttercream and Raspberries, you can make it in 2 (9-inch) round cake pans; bake for 13 minutes. Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1 tablespoon cake flour |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup unsifted cake flour (about 3 3/4 ounces) |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
4 large eggs |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°. 2. Coat a 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan or a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray; line with wax paper. Coat paper with cooking spray; dust with 1 tablespoon flour. Set aside. 3. Cook butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until lightly browned (about 4 minutes). Pour into a small bowl; cool and set aside. 4. Lightly spoon 1 cup flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine 1 cup flour and salt in a sifter. Sift the flour and salt once; set aside. 5. Beat sugar, vanilla, and eggs at high speed of a mixer until ribbons fall from beaters (about 10 to 15 minutes or until the egg mixture holds its shape). Lightly spoon one-third of flour mixture onto egg mixture; quickly fold. Repeat procedure twice with remaining flour mixture. 6. Stir about 1 cup batter into cooled browned butter. Gently fold butter mixture into remaining batter. Spoon batter into prepared pan; spread evenly. Bake in jelly-roll pan at 375° for 12 minutes or in springform pan for 20 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean or the cake springs back when touched lightly in center. Loosen from sides of pan; turn out onto a wire rack. Carefully peel off wax paper. Cool completely. |
