Individual Honey Spice Cakes (Lekach)
(honey sweetened cakes)
Makes 9-10 individual Bundt cakes or 1 regular-sized Bundt cake

What you need:
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground allspice
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup avocado oil
1 cup Savannah Bee Company honey (we used Acacia Honey)
Zest and juice of 1 juicy orange (reserve a little zest for garnish)
½ cup cold coffee
1 teaspoon vanilla paste (can substitute vanilla extract)
Savannah Bee Company Whipped Honey Original

What to do:

1. Wash Up!

2. Preheat oven to 325º F. Spray an individual Bundt cake “muffin” pan OR standard Bundt cake pan with non-stick baking spray. Set aside.

3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Set aside.

4. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, honey, zest, juice, coffee and vanilla.

5. Finish Batter: Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until thoroughly combined. Do not overmix.

6. Bake Cake: Spoon batter into prepared baking pan, smoothing top. Bake until a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean or internal temperature registers 209º F (about 25 minutes for individual cakes and 1 hour for single cake).

To Serve: Smear whipped honey over fully cooled cakes. Garnish with any leftover orange zest.

Pro Tip: Decorate your Bundt cakes by filling the middle hole with sliced citrus or edible flowers.
