The mold should not be greased, so the whites may pick up the wall of the mold to climb; Yes you can put some \u00a0baking paper in the base of the oven so that it is not stuck and come out clean when unmolding.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/lacasalforno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/img_20170421_181239.jpg?w=225\")

First beat (better with a kitchen robot) the egg whites with the pinch of salt and the splash of lemon or cream of tartar; When they start to froth add the sugar slowly and at higher speed. Continue beating and add the vanilla essence and continue beating until you get a shiny and thick meringue.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Now the sifted flour is added in two or three times, carefully and slowly so the whites wont fall down (better to do so with the help of a spatula).<\/p>\n

Pour the dough into the mold \u00a0and smooth the surface. Bring to the oven preheated to 170\u00ba C for about 40 minutes or when the stick comes out clean and dry.<\/p>\n
Important that when removing from the oven do not unmold, let cool completely and upside down. Once cold, pass a spatula on the sides and the sponge will come off without problem.<\/p>\n
Ingredients for apple cream:<\/p>\n
2 apples<\/p>\n
2 cinnamon sticks<\/p>\n
4 tablespoons of sugar<\/p>\n
1 egg<\/p>\n
150 ml liquid cream<\/p>\n
lemon rind<\/p>\n
Chop the apples in small pieces, and put them in a pan together with the sugar, the lemon bark and the cinnamon for about and cover with water, bring to the fire and let cook for about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n
Remove from the heat, remove the cinnamon sticks and the lemon rind and pass through the blender to obtain a fine pur\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
In another bowl beat the egg together with the cream, then, incorporate the apple and take everything to the fire for a few minutes mixing well.<\/p>\n
We already have our apple cream that will give it an Asturian touch; I wanted to go a little further and add another touch with anise and walnuts..<\/p>\n
Chop the walnuts (150 g), add a spoonful of sugar and a little bit of anise and mix well.<\/p>\n
When decorating the sponge cake, simply spread the apple cream over the top, then the nuts (optional). You can also decorate with strawberries or any red fruit.<\/p>\n
