For a long time I wanted to put this recipe, I was waiting for a suitable occasion and I think that in addition to Easter, a homemade honey cake would be quick, delicious and beautiful. The soft honey sponge cake combines perfectly with sour cream and possibly some cherries, there is no better and simpler combination.

There are many honey cake recipes, this is the simplest one I know and from my own experience I tell you that everyone likes it, even the most capricious - it has a taste and aroma like a homemade cake - every time it reminds me of my mother's sweets, simple and good.

Sugar

Baking soda

1 tsp

●

Honey

150 g

●

Sour cream

200 ml

for dough

White flour

280 g

Sour Cream(20%)

Step by step

Step 1

In a bowl, mix the eggs, sugar and baking soda.

Step 2

Add honey, stir.

Step 3

The next is sour cream - mix.

Step 4

And last comes the flour, mix well so that they are not lumpy.

Step 5

Pour the dough into a tray lined with baking paper - for me the tray has a diameter of 28 cm.

Step 6

Now the most important and sensitive part of the recipe - be careful how you bake the pandsipan.

It must be set at 180 degrees, notice that after 15 minutes it browns well (due to the honey in the composition), but be careful - it is not ready yet. Cover the tray with aluminum foil and leave for another 15-20 minutes until the toothpick test passes.
