Honey cake, a rich and juicy cake with a very good taste that gives it honey. I put soft honey in it, but now in the market we can find many different kinds, such as honey with orange, honey with thyme, honey with rosemary…. and many other flavors. You can put the honey that you like the most.
Apart from giving the cake a good flavor, it makes it very healthy and full of vitamins, ideal for a breakfast or snack. It also has a little brown sugar, which gives it a toasted flavor, if it seems very sweet, just add the honey and taste the dough, if it is missing you can add half the sugar that I put.

- First we prepare all the ingredients.
- We will put a saucepan on the fire where we will incorporate the honey, sugar and butter.
- We will melt it all together over low heat.
- When it is done, we will raise the heat a little and let it cook for 1 minute. We turn off and leave it until it is cold. We will put the oven at 160º so that it warms up.
- Once it is cold, we will put the above in a bowl and we will add the eggs one by one and beating.
- We will sift the flour together with the yeast and mix it to the dough.
- We will grease a mold of about 20cm and we will line it with paper.
- We put the dough in the greased mold, we will put in the oven for 50 to 60 minutes, depending on the oven.
- After about 40 minutes we will click in the center, if it comes out wet it still has a little left if it comes out dry it will be.
- When it is we take it out. Now we will prepare a glaze with 2 tablespoons of honey and two tablespoons of water, we put it in the microwave for a minute at least and with a brush we will paint the entire cake.
- And voila, for those who don't want to make the glaze, it is also very good with icing sugar.
