Apple Honey Cake

Apple Honey Cake

• 3 c all-purpose flour
  
• 1 tsp baking powder
  
• 1 tsp baking soda
  
• 1/4 T kosher salt
  
• 1 tsp cinnamon
  
• 1 tsp allspice
  
• 1/4 tsp cloves
  
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  
• 1 c honey
  
• 3/4 c tea, brewed
  
• 3/4 c orange juice
  
• 1/2 c white sugar
  
• 1/2 c brown sugar
  
• 1/2 c canola oil
  
• 3 large eggs
  
• 1 tsp vanilla
  
• 2 medium Fuji apples -- peeled, cored and diced (approximately 2 cups of diced apple)
  

Sift together the flour, baking powder and soda, salt, cinnamon and allspice. I like to use a whisk to combine all of these ingredients.

In another bowl, combine the hot tea, honey and orange juice.

Using either a stand mixer or a hand mixer, cream together the oil and white and brown sugars. Add the eggs, mixing them in one at a time. Add the vanilla.

Add one third of the liquid and mix on low speed. Add one third of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Repeat until all of the wet and dry ingredients have been incorporated. Fold the diced apple into the batter.

Pour into a bundt pan that has been greased and lightly floured. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Let cool completely and then turn the pan over and carefully unmold the cake onto a serving plate.
