We're not keen on desserts, but I wanted to make my husband a small cake for his birthday. So I created this honey cake for the occasion, and the cake came out moist, elegant and delicious. —Rebecca Zeissler, Forest Park, Illinois
Cinnamon-Apple Honey Cake
Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
- 3/4 cup thinly sliced peeled tart apple
