Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the honey to the butter mixture and continue beating until fully incorporated.
One at a time, add the eggs to the mixture, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar if desired. Slice into squares and serve.
