Tips:

  • For a chewier cake, use molasses instead of honey.
  • If you don't have xanthan gum, you can substitute cornstarch or arrowroot powder.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the cake dry and dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting or serving.
