Honey cake in a hurry
Description
Perfectly complements tea and coffee. You can use any honey variety, the main thing is that it shouldn't have a bitter aftertaste. To ensure the cake rises well and becomes fluffy and airy, don't forget the baking powder. You can substitute it with 1 tsp of baking soda neutralized with vinegar or lemon juice. Instead of vegetable oil, you may use melted butter or high-quality margarine, but not spread. By the way, don't forget the lemon juice or lemon flavoring—it perfectly enhances the honey flavor.
