My aunt made this once and it was out of this world. I found this recipe in my book and wanted to share it.

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1 c canola oil
1 c honey
1 1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c packed light brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 c fresh brewed coffee
1/2 c fresh orange juice
2 Tbsp rye or whiskey (or orange juice)
1 c toasted sliced almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Adjust a rack to the lower third of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Generously grease a 13x9x2 inch pan and line the bottom with a sheet of parchment paper.
  • 3. Have all ingredients at room temperature. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Add the oil, honey, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, coffee, orange juice and rye or whiskey, if using.
  • 4. Using a sturdy whisk or an electric mixer on lowest speed, stir together well to create a thick, thoroughly blended batter. Spoon the batter into the pan, and spread it level with a rubber spatula. Bake until the cake springs back when gently pressed in the center, 55 to 65 minutes.
  • 5. Transfer the cake pan to a wire rack and allow the cake to cool about 20 minutes before inverting the cake from the pan. (Or leg the cake cool completely in the pan and cut the cake into squares or rectangles before serving.)
  • 6. When the cake is almost completely cool, sprinkle the almonds over the cake, if desired.

I've never made a honey cake before, but this recipe made it easy. The cake turned out great! It was moist, flavorful, and everyone loved it.

This honey cake was a disaster! It was dry, crumbly, and had no flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The honey cake was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I might try adding some more honey to the batter next time.

This honey cake recipe is fantastic! I've tried many honey cake recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The cake is moist, flavorful, and has the perfect amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making this cake again.
