• one and a half cups of flour;

Beat eggs with sugar. Melt honey and butter until soft and allow to cool, then add the resulting mixture to the beaten eggs and add flour and baking powder. Knead the dough and place it in molds (it is best to use silicone ones) in a layer of no more than one and a half centimeters - this will ensure even baking.

Kitchen appliances and utensils:

• Bowl;

Ingredients

Let's start cooking

1. Sift the flour through a fine sieve directly into the bowl. Add soda, salt, as well as nutmeg, ground ginger, brown sugar and cloves. We form a small hole in the center.

2. Add honey and butter to the saucepan. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice out of it into the rest of the ingredients in the pan. If you want lemon pieces to occasionally appear in the finished dessert, you can use a blender and grind the whole lemon in it along with the zest. You can do the same with raisins, although it will be better if you add them whole.

3. Place the saucepan on the stove and melt its contents until smooth.
4. As soon as all the ingredients in the pan reach the consistency we need, pour the resulting liquid in a thin stream into a bowl, directly into the formed well. Do not forget to mix the entire contents of the bowl with a whisk.

5. Add raisins. Whisk all ingredients in a bowl until smooth.
6. Beat the eggs into a plate and pour milk or cream over them. Whisk until smooth.

7. Add the milk-egg mixture into the dough in small portions and beat it with a whisk at the same time.

8. Pour the resulting dough into a muffin pan, which must first be greased with oil. The dough will increase in size significantly in the oven, so don't be discouraged if you feel like there isn't enough dough.

9. Turn on the oven to 160-180 degrees and leave it to warm up. We send our form with the dough to the heated oven for about 40-45 minutes.
10. After the time has passed, remove the baking pan from the oven and place the finished cake on a large plate. We leave the finished dessert to brew a little and cool, after which you can treat your guests to it. Bon appetit!

Video recipe for spicy honey cake

Another original recipe for honey cake is shown in the video - here it is suggested to add rum to the dough. Please also note that honey does not need to be melted - it is added directly during kneading.

Apple-honey cupcake

Ingredients:

• 2-3 apples to taste;
• 3 raw eggs;
• half a glass of sugar;
• a glass of flour;
• 90 g vegetable oil;
• 2 tablespoons honey;
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice;
• 1 teaspoon baking powder.

Peeled apples and cut into small pieces are lightly moistened with lemon juice. Add honey, butter, flour and baking powder to eggs beaten with sugar and stir until smooth. Add apples, and then the resulting mass is laid out in molds and baked for half an hour in the oven.

Cupcake with berry filling

If desired, you can choose a filling from fresh or frozen berries, as well as jam, which will also be very aromatic and tasty.

Ingredients:

• flour – 300 gr.;
• eggs – 2 pcs.;
• honey - 4 tbsp. l.;
• sugar – 2 tsp;
• milk – 250 ml;
• oil (vegetable) – 80 ml;
• vanillin – ½ tsp;
• soda – 1 tsp;
• vinegar (9%) – 1 tsp;
• berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) – 100 gr.

Using a whisk, beat eggs, melted honey, sugar, butter, milk into a foamy mass, add vanillin, flour and soda, slaked with vinegar, then mix the mass to a creamy consistency. Wash the berries and sprinkle with sugar. Place a little dough (1 tsp) into the muffin tins, then place a layer of filling (1 tsp), and again the dough on top so that the workpiece occupies 2/3 of the container. Bake the cupcakes at 200⁰C for 20-25 minutes.

Honey cake in the microwave oven

The dish includes:

• 1 chicken egg;
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar;
• 1 tablespoon honey;
• 1 cup flour;
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil;
• soda – ¼ teaspoon.

In a microwave-safe cup, mix everything and place in the microwave for 2-3 minutes. If it’s not ready, you can hold it for another minute, but no more. If you overdo it, the cake will turn out tough and its taste will deteriorate.

The big advantage of this method is the high speed of preparation: a few minutes are enough to treat yourself to a wonderful dessert. The recipe is also suitable for the oven - only the quantity of ingredients will need to be increased proportionally.

Honey cake: features

The first thing a novice cook needs to remember is that using honey does not automatically mean giving up sugar: the latter not only plays the role of a sweetener in muffins, but is also responsible for the process of caramelization and obtaining a beautiful crust. For this reason, the amount of sugar in honey cake, although minimal, is not zero. Also take into account a few more points:

• Despite the use of baking powder, honey cake is always quite dense and in order not to aggravate this, the dough must be kneaded very quickly.
• It is advisable to knead the honey dough manually, using a spatula to move from bottom to top and down.
• Honey must have a liquid consistency before being added to the dough, so the candied honey must be preheated (melted).
• For softness, use only egg yolks in the dough, but their quantity must be calculated according to the recipe. Most experts say that 2 yolks are equivalent to a full egg.
• After the oven stops working, you need to keep the cake in it for a while, and then let it cool in the mold: it is not recommended to take it out hot.

You can make minor changes to any recipe: for example, instead of part of the flour (up to 10%), use starch, which will prevent the delicacy from quickly becoming stale. White sugar can always be replaced with brown sugar if desired, and cinnamon, cardamom, vanillin, and cocoa can be added to the dough itself.

Multicooker recipe

A fluffy and delicious cake can also be prepared in a slow cooker. To do this you will need to take the following products:

• half a kilo of flour;
• 4 eggs;
• 130 g each of honey and sugar;
• baking powder.

Beat the sugar and eggs until an airy, light mass is obtained - the volume of the mixture at least doubles. Then add the remaining ingredients and stir thoroughly until smooth. The dough is poured into a pre-oiled multicooker cup and the lid is closed. Select the “Baking” mode and leave for 1 hour. After turning off the timer, leave to infuse for another quarter of an hour.
