How to make wholemeal cake
To make a simple wholemeal cake, start by beating the egg yolks, margarine and sugar in a blender to make a white cream. Then sift together the flour and baking powder and gradually add to the mixture, alternating with the milk. Beat the egg whites until stiff and add, stirring gently with a spatula. Then shape the mixture into a greased and floured cake tin and bake in a preheated medium oven at 180ºC for around 30 minutes. To find out if the wholemeal cake is ready, first test it with a toothpick and then allow the cake to cool slightly before unmolding. Then it's ready to eat! If you wish, top the cake with icing sugar.
