Honey Bundt Cake Recipe 395

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch Bundt pan or 2 loaf pans.
• In a large bowl, stir together the sugar and oil. Beat in the eggs until light, then stir in the honey and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and allspice; stir into the batter just until moistened. Fold in the apples and nuts. Transfer batter to prepared pan or pans (see Cook's Note).
• Bake Bundt cake until a toothpick inserted into the crown comes out clean, about one hour. (Start checking for doneness after 50 minutes.) Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before inverting onto a plate and tapping out of the pan. If desired, dust with confectioners' sugar, sprinkle with cinnamon, or drizzle with warm honey before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Cream the butter and sugar together. Blend in the egg yolks, one at a time and beat until the batter is fluffy. Stir in the honey. Sift the cake flour with other dry ingredients, add to egg yolk mixture and gently blend. Add sour cream and blend. Beat separated egg whites until stiff, then gently fold into the batter. Pour into Bundt cake pan that has been coated with baking spray. Bake at 325 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until an inserted toothpick removes cleanly. Cool on wire rack. Combine honey glaze ingredients and pour over cooled cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, oil, eggs and sour cream. Stir by hand approximately 50 strokes, or until most large lumps are gone. Pour half of the batter into an ungreased 9x13 inch glass baking dish. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the batter in the cake pan. Spoon the other half of the batter into the cake pan, covering the brown sugar and cinnamon. Twirl the cake with a butter knife or icing knife until it looks like a honey bun (or whatever design you want to make).
• Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Frost cake while it is still fairly hot. Serve warm.
• To Make the frosting: In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth.

Steps:

• Set oven to 325 degrees.
• Set oven rack to middle position.
• Grease a Bundt pan.
• In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, allspice and salt; set aside.
• In a small saucepan bring honey JUST to a boil; remove from heat, and stir in tea and grated lemon peel; set pan aside and cool slightly.
• In a bowl, beat eggs for about 5 minutes, or until thick, pale and frothy.
• Beat in oil and vanilla or brandy (if using).
• Beat in sugar 2 tablespoons at a time until well blended.
• Alternately fold in flour and honey mixture (batter will be fairly thin).
• Add/fold in raisins.
• Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan.
• Bake in center oven for 60-70 mins, or until cake tests done.
• To make glaze: in a small bowl, whisk together, 1/2 cup icing sugar and 4 tsp fresh lemon juice to make a glaze, drizzle over cake.
