Equipment
Ingredients
- 100 g Vegetable Shortening Trex or Crisco
- 100 g Plain Flour or All-Purpose Flour
- 100 ml Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- Add the shortening, flour and oil into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the balloon attachment. Alternatively, you can use a large mixing bowl with a balloon whisk or handheld mixer.
- Mix the ingredients together on low speed until the flour is just combined, then increase the speed to medium and continue whisking until you have a smooth paste. If using a stand mixer, the paste will be light and airy similar to a meringue.
- Transfer the cake release into an airtight container such as a Kilner jar or jam jar, and label with the date.
- Store the cake release at room temperature out of direct sunlight or in a cupboard. If the mixture separates during storage, stir together before using.
- To use the cake release, dip a silicone pastry brush into the mixture and brush an even layer over your cake pan, then add the batter.
Notes
- If you wish to make a gluten-free version, substitute this for a free-form flour instead. I prefer to use Doves Farm flour.
