Ingredients
  

  • 200 g Caster Sugar
  • 200 g Butter Softened
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 cup Honey
  • 1/2 cup Orange Juice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp All Spice
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 200 g Self Raising Flour

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 190°C and grease your mould or loaf tin
  • Put your caster sugar and butter into a bowl and cream together still smooth.
  • Add your eggs into the mixture. By this point your mix will start to look a little curdled. Trust the process and keep going.
  • Next pour in your orange juice, honey, vanilla extract.
  • Followed by your salt, cinnamon and all spice.
  • Slowly add in your flour and baking powder until all combined.
  • Pour your mixture into your mould or loaf tin and make sure that it is in all the corners by gently lifting it and tapping it back down onto the surface.
  • Put in the oven to cook for around 40-50 minutes if the top is browning too much cover it loosely in foil.
  • When the cake is fully cooked test the mixture with a skewer. If it comes out clean it's done, if it's wet put it back in the oven for a few more minutes.
  • Leave in the mould for around 10 minutes before slowly peeling it off.
  • Place the cake on a cooling rack until it has completely cooled and then enjoy.
