Ingredients
- 1 tsp cooking spray or use butter
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep a loaf pan with cooking spray or butter.
- Crack two eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk up with a fork.
- Add brown sugar and whisk again to combine.
- Pour in vegetable oil, honey, water, and vanilla extract. Stir to mix.
- Now it's time to add the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Once all the ingredients are added, stir to blend everything together.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes.
- Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes and check again.
- Once cake is done, let it cool down for 30 minutes, then flip out of the pan and onto a serving platter. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
- Be sure to coat both the sides and bottom of loaf pan with nonstick spray or butter for easier clean-up
- Measure out vegetable oil first so the honey slides right out of the measuring cup
- Honey caramelizes as it bakes, so the outside of the loaf may look brown, but still be perfectly cooked
