Place on the springform pan, prick several times and pre-bake in a preheated oven (electric range: 225 ° C/ gas: level 4) for approx. 8 minutes. For the sponge cake, beat the eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar and lemon zest in a warm water bath with the whisk of the hand mixer until thick and frothy. Mix flour and starch and fold in. Place the edge of a springform pan around the shortcrust pastry base and fill the sponge cake mixture on top.
