Best Honey Spice Cake With Orange Recipes

HONEY CAKE WITH ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed together. In a separate large bowl, stir together the vegetable oil, 1 cup of sugar, and honey, and beat the eggs in one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the flour mixture, alternating with the coffee in several additions. Mix in the shredded apple, if desired.
• Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle the walnuts over the top of the cake. Bake in the preheated oven until the cake springs back when lightly touched with a finger, about 1 hour. Allow the cake to cool until warm, about 15 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter, and whisk in 2/3 cup of sugar and the orange juice until the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, and remove from heat, whisking constantly. Pour the glaze over the warm cake.

HONEY & SPICE CAKE

Steps:

• I make this cake in three nonstick 8x4-inch loaf pans, but it can also be made in two nonstick 9x5-inch loaf pans or an angel food cake pan WITHOUT a removable bottom or a 9x13-inch sheetpan.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray the pan(s) with nonstick cooking spray and dust lightly with flour. If using an angel food cake pan, line the bottom with lightly greased parchment paper.
• In a very large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Make a well in the center and add the oil, honey, brown sugar, eggs, coffee or tea, orange juice, and orange liqueur and vanilla extract.
• Using a strong wire whisk or an electric mixer on low speed, mix the ingredients until well combined. The batter will be pourable.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s). Place the pan(s) on 2 baking sheets stacked together and bake until the cakes are set, domed and spring back when you touch them gently in the center (the stacked sheet pans will prevent the bottom from browning too quickly). For loaf cakes, bake for 45-50 minutes; for angel cake pans, bake for 60 to 70 minutes; for sheet-style cake, bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Let the cake(s) stand for 15 minutes before removing from the pan(s). Run a butter knife along the edges of the pans to help the cakes release, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Wrap the cake(s) in foil and store at room temperature for several days.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, wrap it securely in aluminum foil, freezer wrap or place in a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

HONEY SPICE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Grease and flour bundt pan.
• Mix hot water with instant coffee; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix honey, sugar, oil and eggs until very light and fluffy. Add all remaining ingredients including the coffee mixture; mix well.
• Spoon batter into prepared pan.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center of cake comes out clean.
• Cool 10 minutes.
• Remove from pan; cool completely.
• If desired, drizzled with glaze of your choice.

ORANGE HONEY CAKE

Steps:

• Coat with nonstick spray or grease two 9 by 5-inch loaf pans.
• Line the bottom of each pan with a small piece of wax paper cut to fit; then spray or grease the paper.
• Set the pans aside.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Put the hot water into a 2-cup measuring cup or a small bowl.
• Add the instant coffee granules, and stir until they are dissolved.
• Stir in the orange juice concentrate to cool the coffee.
• Set aside.
• Measure out the cinnamon, allspice, salt, baking powder and baking soda, and place in a small custard cup or on a piece of wax paper.
• Set aside.
• Measure the flour by spooning it into the proper-size measuring cups, and leveling off the top.
• After measuring the flour, sift it onto a large piece of wax paper or into an extra bowl.
• (Sifting is necessary as tiny lumps may not beat out during the mixing process and will appear in the finished cake.) Put the eggs, oil, sugar, and honey into a large mixer bowl.
• With an electric mixer at medium speed, beat them together until completely combined, about 2 minutes.
• Add the spice mixture, and beat until combined.
• Beat in about a third of the flour, then a third of the orange-coffee mixture, repeating twice until all the ingredients are added.
• Beat on low speed until the flour is completely mixed in, scraping the bowl if necessary.
• Then beat the batter on high speed for 1 to 2 minutes or until it is very smooth.
• The batter will be thin.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pans, dividing it evenly.
• Bake the cakes at 325 degrees for about 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out completely clean (test both cakes).
• If there is a wet spot in the center of the top of a cake, bake it a few minutes longer.
• Remove the cakes from the oven, and let them cool for 1 hour in their pans on a wire rack.
• The sides of the cakes should shrink away from the pans a little.
• Run a knife around the sides of each cake to loosen it; then turn the cake out of its pan, and peel the wax paper from the bottom.
• Invert the cakes so the tops are facing upward.
• Cool the cakes completely on the wire rack.
• Wrap the cooled cakes well for storage (use sturdy plastic wrap and/or heavy-duty foil).
• If the wrapped cakes are allowed to “mellow” overnight, their taste and texture will improve, and they will be easier to slice (a serrated bread knife works best).
• The tightly wrapped loaves can be kept at room temperature for up to 4 days, or they may be frozen for several months.
• (Defrost, wrapped, at room temperature, before slicing and serving.) To serve, cut each loaf crosswise into slices, and arrange the slices, slightly overlapping, on a tray or platter.

ORANGE-SPICED RYE HONEY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Generously grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 1/2 cups of oil, the eggs, sugar, honey, coffee, and orange zest. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture, then stir with a fork or a whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, until set in the middle-the cake should hold firm when lightly pressed on top. Be careful not to leave it in the oven for too long or it will dry out.
• Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes-1 hour for a Bundt cake (see note)-before very carefully inverting it and removing the pan. Slice and serve with fresh fruit and tea.
