Elliot's Honey Cinnamon Cake by PISHI By Nation Media Group
Ingredients
12 cakes
- 1 3/4 cup flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) very soft butter
- More butter (for greasing pan)
- 1/8 cup more butter (for glazing)
- 1 lemon worth of zest
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup honey (raw is best)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2-3 dashes cinnamon
Steps / How to Make
Grease the bejezus out of the muffin pan with soft but not melted butter.
Preheat the oven to 350
Mix all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add in soft butter and mix until it's an evenly crumbly mixture
In a small bowl whisk together the milk, eggs, 3/4 cup honey, and vanilla.
Mix the wet and dry ingredients until combined. Don't over mix. It'll still be a little lumpy.
Pour batter into muffin pan. Bake for 16 minutes or until cakes are not quite done.
Microwave 1/8 cup melted butter and remaining 1/4 cup honey. Add 3-4 dashes of salt. Microwave for 10 seconds and stir.
Remove hot cakes from muffin pan to parchment-Iined sheet pan
Use a pastry brush to paint the hot cakes with the honey butter mixture. Be generous and let it run down the sides. Let sit for 6-10 minutes so honey can soak in.
Bake again for 9 minutes.
Let cool and serve with butter or lemon whipped cream.
