this orange and honey cake tastes like a
0:03
sunny day in Spain it is so so good i'll
0:07
show you how to make
0:10
it there's no doubt about it orange and
0:13
honey are a match made in heaven and in
0:16
this cake they come together so
0:18
beautifully with the sweetness of the
0:20
honey and that sharp citrusy flavor for
0:23
the cake we start with honey i used some
0:26
fancy honey that I got from a honey farm
0:28
recently um which had honeycomb in it
0:31
that worked beautifully but any honey
0:33
will do obviously the better quality you
0:36
have the better quality your cake will
0:38
be anyway start with 100 g of honey 100
0:42
g of castor sugar and 140 g of softened
0:45
butter beat that together and then add
0:49
three eggs one at a time beating in
0:52
between each one until you've got this
0:54
really smooth
0:56
batter then it's time to add the orange
0:58
flavor we want the juice from half an
1:01
orange and the zest from an orange as
1:04
well mix that in and then you can add
1:07
flour i've used self-raising flour 245 g
1:12
of it and I fold that in again until
1:15
I've got a nice smooth batter next I
1:19
line a loaf tin with a loaf tin liner i
1:22
have made too many loaf cakes to not use
1:25
loaf tin liner now there is nothing more
1:27
painful than scraping your cake from the
1:30
bottom of a loaf tin this stops that
1:33
from happening spoon your butter in
1:36
smooth it down and then pop in the oven
1:38
at 160° C for about an hour or until a
1:43
skewer inserted into it comes out clean
1:46
next up you're making a syrup for your
1:48
oranges your candied oranges slice your
1:51
oranges thinly then get a saucepan and
1:54
add 50 g of castor sugar 50 g of honey
1:58
juice of half an orange and 50 ml of
2:02
water add your orange slices and you're
2:05
going to simmer this for about 30
2:07
minutes to 45 minutes until the skin on
2:11
the oranges is really soft and you can
2:13
bite into it when your cake's out of the
2:16
oven you can add your orange slices to
2:18
the top in a nice a niceish pattern as
2:23
nice as you like um and then these will
2:26
harden as they cool
2:28
next prick it with a skewer and drizzle
2:31
over any remaining syrup the cake will
2:34
drink that up and become really moist
2:36
and delicious and there you have it
2:39
enjoy this is delicious
