Serves 8
Ingredients
For the bundt

225g (8oz) caster sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoon honey
1 lemon, zested
Icing
200g (7oz) icing sugar
3 teaspoons lemon juice
3 teaspoons whisky
(1 teaspoon of cold water at a time if needed to create a runnier consistency)
Method
Pre-heat your oven to 160°C fan (350°F). Lightly butter your bundt tin (I use a 20cm/8” silicone bundt tin).
Cream together the butter and sugar with a handheld mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one by one, until well combined.
Sift in the flour and baking powder, and stir together carefully on a low speed until just combined.

Cream together the butter and sugar with a handheld mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one by one, until well combined.
Sift in the flour and baking powder, and stir together carefully on a low speed until just combined.
Add the honey and lemon zest, and mix well.
Place the batter into the prepared tin and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then carefully release the cake onto a wire rack. Leave to cool completely.
To make the icing, sieve the icing sugar into a bowl and begin to mix in the lemon juice and whisky to give a thick but pourable icing. If it isn’t runny enough to pour on, mix in a teaspoon of water.
Pour the icing over the cake, scatter over the lemon zest and serve – an accompanying mug of hot toddy is optional!
