When baking a sponge cake, such as an angel food cake, don’t grease the pans. Greasing will prevent the cake from rising, and will probably cause it to fall entirely. A piece of parchment or silicone paper at the bottom of the pan will do, and leave the sides free. When it’s baked and cooled, you can run a knife along the edge of the cake pan to release it.
