Honey Cake is a traditional British recipe for a classic light sponge-type cake made with cornflour and flavoured with honey and lemon zest. The full recipe is presented here and I hope you enjoy this classic British version of: Honey Cake.
Combine the egg yolks, sugar, honey and lemon zest in a bowl. Cream together with a whisk for about 7 minutes, or until pale and fluffy. Sift in the cornflour and beat thoroughly to combine. Meanwhile, add the egg whites to a clean and dry bowl and beat until stiff. Fold the egg whites and flour through the honey mix then turn the batter into a greased and floured shallow cake tin.
Transfer to an oven pre-heated to 170°C and bake for about 35 minutes until golden on top and cooked through. Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then turn onto a wire rack to cool before cutting into squares and serving.
