Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Sift the flours, baking powder and cornstarch together.⠀
Separate the egg whites from yolks. Beat the whites with monk fruit at high speed for 7 minutes until stiff peaks form.
Beat the egg yolks with vanilla, and gradually add flour mixture just until incorporated.
Slowly mix in the egg white mixture to the egg yolk+flour mixture with a rubber spatula. Need to be careful not to overmix, so it stays fluffy. Mix just until incorporated.
