Instructions
1-First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your baking pan to keep the cake from sticking trust me, it’s a game-changer.
2-In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients like flour, baking powder, and salt until they’re evenly blended.
3-Now, in another bowl, whisk the wet ones: honey, butter, eggs, milk, and orange zest if you’re using it.
4-Gently combine the wet and dry mixtures, stirring just enough to blend without overdoing it that’s the secret to a fluffy cake.
5-Pour your batter into the pan, smooth it out, and pop it in the oven for 45 to 50 minutes.
6-Once it’s done, let it cool a bit before adding the honey syrup for that extra moist kick.
7-The honey syrup comes next: heat it up and drizzle it over the warm cake to let it soak in deeply.
