Below You Will Find some Of My Favourite Honey Baking Recipes that I enjoy baking. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
HONEY AND LEMON DRIZZLE CAKE.
Ingredients
285 grams Self Raising Flour
285 grams Margarine
285 grams Caster sugar
2.5 Teaspoons Baking Powder
5 Medium Eggs
1 Fresh Whole Lemon
125 Grams Icing Sugar
Preheat oven to 170
Using a 9 inch tin, grease the inside of the tin well with a little butter or margarine.
Sieve the flour and baking powder into a bowl, and add the margarine and caster sugar along with the five eggs. Beat well together until creamy, light and fluffy.
Divide between your tins and bake at 170 for 30 to 40 minutes.
Honey And Lemon Drizzle.
Zest the lemon, but keep the grated ring to one side as you will need it to finish the cake.
Put the juice from the whole lemon into a cup and add one ample Tablespoon of honey, and one level tablespoon of sugar. Boil a small pan of water and place the cup in. Stir until the honey, lemon juice and sugar are all dissolved into liquid.
Once the sponge is cooked, remove and allow to cool. Once cool pierce several holes into the top,( I find a chopstick works really well) making sure you push right into the cake. Take your honey and lemon drizzle and teaspoon over and into the holes you made previously, you want the flavour to soak right through the sponge. save a little aside for the icing!
Put your 125 grams of icing sugar into a bowl and add one tablespoon of water. Stir and add water a little at a time, until a nice runny consistency. Once ready pour over the top of your cake and allow to drizzle over and down the sides.
Take the last of your honey and lemon drizzle and spoon over the icing and sprinkle the grated lemon zest over the top to finish and decorate.
Additionally should you prefer you can make a butter cream filling for the sponge. for this you would need 150 grams of butter, one tablespoon of honey, 340 grams of icing sugar and three table spoons of lemon juice. Beat the ingredients in a bowl until creamy, if needed you can add a tablespoon of water at a time, then spread on the inside of cake and allow to set.
Allow for icing to set then enjoy!!
