Baking the Perfect Moist Honey Cake for Rosh Hashanah

½ cup Honey: The star ingredient! Choose a flavorful honey, like clover or orange blossom, for a deeper taste.

½ cup tea: a surprising but crucial ingredient. Strong black tea or coffee adds depth and complexity to the flavor, and the acidity helps activate the baking soda.

1 teaspoon vanilla extract: enhances the sweetness and adds a touch of floral aroma.

1 teaspoon Baking powder: provides lift and ensures a light and airy texture.

½ teaspoon Baking Soda: Works alongside the baking powder for an extra boost of rise.

¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt: Balances the sweetness and enhances the other flavors.

1 teaspoon Cinnamon: The quintessential Rosh Hashanah spice, warm and comforting.

¼ teaspoon Nutmeg: Adds a subtle hint of warmth and complexity.
