Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease a fluted cake pan with non-stick spray or butter and dust it with flour, ensuring the pan is evenly coated.

In a stand mixer, whisk the whole eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar, and salt until the mixture triples in size, becoming very fluffy and creamy.

In a separate bowl, mix together all-purpose flour and baking powder.

Carefully fold in the flour-baking powder mixture into the egg mixture until fully incorporated. Make sure not to over mix to keep the batter light and airy.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake until the top turns golden and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean, approximately 30 minutes.

Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. When cooled, slice as desired and serve.
