Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon dried lavender buds
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (for glaze)

Instructions

  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the honey, dried lavender, lemon zest, and lemon juice until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
  11. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top and let it set for a few minutes before serving.
