The cake will be different every time, depending on the honey and spices. This time, my honey was from a beekeeper, organic farmer near Portland, Oregon. Next time, I'll use honey from a beekeeper and farmer in Ithaca, NY.

Spiced Honey Cake
This week I baked Dorie Greenspan's Spiced Honey Cake from Baking Chez Moi. It's a loaf cake that begs to be tweaked and, since I had neither lavender flowers nor Szechuan peppercorns, I had to make do! I used some regular peppercorns and upped the ginger.

My family wished I didn't have the lavender to add! It looks wonderful with the toasted almond topping and I'm sure it will be tasty too.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone would be happy to leave out the lavender. Glad you enjoyed your cake.
ReplyDeleteYou must try it toasted with a little butter :)
ReplyDeleteI did try it toasted with some black raspberry preserves. Yummy!
