Ingredients
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
¾ cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
6 eggs
1 egg white
⅔ cup sugar
½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 10-by-14-inch cake pan with vegetable oil. Set aside. Sift flour, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of cocoa together twice. Set aside.
- Step 2
Combine the eggs, egg white, sugar and lemon juice in a double boiler. Heat over medium heat until the mixture coats the back of a spoon, stirring constantly. Pour into a mixing bowl. Whisk until completely cooled. Fold in the flour mixture. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake until cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes. Dust with remaining cocoa. Serve immediately.

It's a simple, easy to make cake and with all those eggs, protein rich for a cake! Not convinced the double broiler is needed. I have a similar recipe with almond flour that doesn't require double broiler. Watch to not over-bake. It could use a glaze.
