In a separate bowl beat egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Be careful not to over beat as they will dry out. Gently fold egg whites into mixture.
Spray pans with cooking spray and lightly flour.
Bake in preheated oven for 3/4 -1 hour. Tester should come out clean.
Makes one large tube pan or 2 loaf pans or 6-8 "mini" Bundts.
Add fresh raspberries to mix as it is placed in pans for a wonderful variation. |
