How to bake a moist honey cake in 8 steps
Tip :) Always use a kitchen scale for our recipe and for weighing the ingredients, such as the flour. That way, your gluten-free honey cake will turn out nice and moist and, with cinnamon and gingerbread spice, makes the perfect treat for the Advent season.

- Put the sugar beet syrup, honey and brown sugar into a small saucepan and warm them. Keep stirring until the sugar has dissolved. It must not boil, so don't let it get too hot!
- Beat the eggs and slowly mix them in with a hand mixer, stirring constantly. Keep mixing until a creamy mixture forms.
- Add the vanilla sugar and oil and mix in.
- Add the cinnamon, gingerbread spice, salt and milk and stir in well.
- Mix the remaining ingredients (except the vinegar) and fold them into the batter. Briefly stir in the vinegar. The batter should now be fairly runny. If it is too firm, add a little more milk.
- Pour the batter into a loaf tin and bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (top and bottom heat) for approx. 50 minutes. After 10 minutes of baking, use a sharp knife to cut a slit approx. 1 cm deep down the middle of the cake.
- As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, mix 1 tbsp honey with 1 tbsp milk, warm briefly until runny and brush over the cake. If you like, sprinkle a little pearl sugar on top now.
- Leave the cake to cool and serve. It tastes great on its own or spread with butter.
