Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Honey
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the honey, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in batches, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve as is, or dust with powdered sugar for extra sweetness. Enjoy!
