Free Honey Cake
8 servings
1 3/4 cups
honey
1 cup strong coffee
1/2 cup currants, or raisins
3 tablespoons brandy
1/4 cup applesauce
1 1/4 cups brown sugar, packed
1 cup egg substitute
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
In a saucepan,
combine the honey and coffee, bring to a boil and
cool. Soak currants in brandy. Preheat the oven to
350 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer, blend
the applesauce, brown sugar and egg substitute. Combine
the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices.
Stir the
dry ingredients alternately with the coffee into the
egg mixture. Fold in the currants and orange zest.
Spray Pam in two 9x5-inch loaf pans (or use non-stick
pans). Pour the batter in and bake for 1 hour; the
top will be sticky, but a toothpick inserted into
the center should come out clean. You know the rest!!!!!!
