Notes

Adapted from a Women’s Day recipe.

Honey cake is a special treat for Rosh Hashanah or any time you want to celebrate a sweet year. This one is almost like gingerbread.

Probably best not to try this if you live at a high altitude. It always overflowed and then sank even with the original ingredients.

Substitutions

To avoid tree nuts, omit optional almonds.
Corn Substitutions: Corn is a common ingredient in products. Starch, modified food starch, dextrin and maltodextrin can be from corn. Consult with your physician to find out which corn derivatives you need to avoid. Many corn-free options are available in the US. Find out more about corn substitutions.
Egg Substitutions: There are many egg-free products and foods available to make your recipes free of eggs. Find out more about egg substitutions.
Gluten: Gluten is a protein found in specific grains (wheat, spelt, kamut, barley, rye). Other grains are naturally gluten-free but may have cross-contact with gluten-containing grains. Look for certified gluten-free products if you need to avoid gluten. Find out more about wheat and gluten substitutions.
