Ingredients:

2 cups

Pastry Flour

1.5 cups

White Sugar

1 tbsp

Baking Powder

1 tsp

Salt

1 cup

Egg White

1 cup

Milk

2 cups

Whipped Cream

Directions:

1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C)

2

Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl

3

Make a well in the dry ingredients; place water, oil, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and maple extract into the well

4

Stir together with a wooden spoon, then beat until batter is smooth; stir in walnuts

5

Place egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl

6

Sprinkle egg whites with cream of tartar; beat until stiff peaks form

7

Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks

8

Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/4 the beaten egg whites into the batter

9

Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated; repeat folding with remaining egg whites, 1/4 at a time, folding just until incorporated

10

Turn the batter into an ungreased 9- or 10-inch tube pan

11

Cut through the batter with a knife to eliminate large air bubbles

12

Bake in the preheated oven until cake is golden, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour

13

Tip the pan upside down over a wire rack to cool, about 30 minutes

14

Run a knife around the edge of pan to remove the cake; cool completely, about 30 minutes

15

Beat instant pudding and milk together in a bowl; fold in whipped cream

16

Spread over cake
