Preheat oven to 325°F.

In a large bowl, sift flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt together twice.

In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks, water, canola oil, 4 teaspoons of grated lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Add the egg yolk mixture to the flour mixture; beat until well blended.
5
In a clean and dry bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
6
Gently fold a quarter of the egg whites into the batter, then fold in the remaining egg whites.

Carefully spoon the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Run a knife through the batter to remove air pockets.

Immediately invert the pan and let it cool completely, about 1 hour.

Run a knife around the sides and center tube of the pan to release the cake. Transfer the cake to a serving plate.
