Ingredients

  • 230g butter, melted
  • 140g caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 120g vegetable oil
  • 114g honey
  • 450g The Healthy Baker Plain Flour
  • 32.5g baking powder
  • 0.5g salt

Icing

  • 250g mascarpone
  • 180g cream
  • to drizzle honey

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 170C, then grease and line 2 x 6-inch round cake tins. You may also use larger round tins but will need to adjust cooking time.

2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the butter, caster sugar, eggs, oil, and honey.

3

Sift in the flour and add the baking powder and salt. Stir until well combined and smooth.

4

Divide the batter evenly between the two cake tins and bake for 50-60min, or until golden brown and an inserted skewer comes out clean.

5

Allow to cool in the tins for 5 minutes before turning the cakes out onto a rack to cool completely.

6

When cakes are cool, make the icing by whipping the cream and folding the mascarpone through.

7

If desired, cut your cakes in half to make 4 layers, and add icing between each cake layer. Top your cake with the remaining icing and drizzle honey over before serving.
