Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper to ensure easy removal.
Mix Eggs and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs and sugar on medium-high speed for about 8-10 minutes. The mixture should become thick, pale, and triple in volume.
Incorporate Flour: Sift the flour into the egg mixture in small batches. Gently fold the flour into the batter using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the batter airy and light.
Pour and Bake: Once the flour is fully incorporated, pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes. The cake is ready when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, serve the sponge cake as is, or enhance it with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or your favorite frosting.
