Notes

My friend has her own bees and taught me this recipe with her own honey

  • I haven’t tried a honey cake in ages. I have plenty of honey at home at the moment, must give this recipe a try.

  • Thanx for sharing. I prefer to drizzle a cake with honey above baking with it as heated honey destroys the nutritional value.

  • I’m thinking that this cake would be really moist with the oil in it, and the flavour combination of coffee and honey would make it very more-ish.
