Apple sponge cake

I tried this today and it turned out OK. Is it normal to have all the potato starch (flour) and nuts on the bottom and the marange on top. Is this correct.
I cooked it at 150 Cel for 40 minutes

what is a "wonder-baker" and what constitutes as low flame?

cake flopped

Due to greasing of the pan when I inverted the cake to cool, the cake fell out of the pan and then proceeded to deflate. :(

How would you bake this in a regular oven if you were to make it the day before? Temperature and time???

WonderPot

A WonderPot was a very common item in Israeli kitchens in the past...It looks rather like a tube pan (like for an angel cake or a Bundt pan), but it also has a cover and is placed on a burner on the stove. Thus, it's something like a stove-top oven for people who have kitchen burners but not an oven....I haven't seen them on sale for many years, but they appeared in some supermarkets this year for Passover--great if you don't want to have to Pesah-kosher your regular oven....It's also great in the summer when you don't want a hot oven going on a hot day (it's 90 degrees in Jerusalem today!)...

Happy Passover/Pesah!
