Ingredients

6 pcs eggs;
6 tbsp brown sugar;
4 tbsp vegetables oil, coconut oil or sun-flower oil
8 tbsp hot water
150 g mascarpone cheese;
15 tbsp all-purpose flour;
1 tsp baking powder
300-500 g fruits cherries, sour cherries, peaches, apricots, blueberries, blackberries, plums, etc

Instructions

As I already mentioned, the first step is to separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Place the egg yolks and the egg whites into different, large bowls.
I used the Thermomix to prepare this cherry cake, but you can follow the steps using a mixer. So, place butterfly whisk into the clean and dry mixing bowl of the Thermomix, then add the egg whites and a pinch of salt. Create that foamy texture by using 4 min – Speed 3.5. During this time, you can add 2 spoons of brown sugar, by removing the measuring cup from the lid.
Once you get the foamy texture that you will need later in the recipe, place the resulting foam into a clean bowl and leave it in the fridge until required;
Now, let’s take care of the egg yolks. Add the egg yolks into the mixing bowl (without the butterfly whisk), add the remaining brown sugar, the mascarpone cheese and mix them using 2 min – Speed 2.
During this time, remove the measuring cup and slowly pour the vegetable oil into the composition from the mixing bowl.
Add the hot water and mix for 1 min – Speed 1.
Now, take the egg whites foam out of the fridge and start adding it into the egg yolks composition. Using a spatula or a wooden spoon, slowly incorporate the foam into the composition. Repeat this until you add the entire egg whites foam.
In the end, using a sieve, add the flour and the baking powder into the batter, and slowly incorporate it by moving the spatula/ wooden spoon from the top to the bottom of the bowl.
Once you finished this and you have a nice fluffy batter, start pouring it into a baking tray. The baking tray should be covered with parchment paper or butter and flour, to prevent sticking the cake to the tray.
On top of the batter, place the fruits and then bake the cake for 45-50 minutes in the preheated oven at 175℃.
