Classic honey sponge cake

Ingredients

Servings

Egg C1

4 pcs
Sugar

120 G
Honey

110 G
Soda

7 G
Flour

160 G

Preparation

Step 1

In a saucepan, mix honey and soda.

Step 2

Cook this mixture over medium heat for about 5 minutes. It will turn an amber color, then set it aside and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

Beat eggs with sugar at high speed for about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the honey mixture to the eggs in a thin stream and continue beating.

Step 5

The result should be a fluffy mass with a light golden hue.

Step 6

Add the sifted flour in portions and mix gently with a silicone spatula so that the mixture does not lose its fluffiness.

Step 7

The resulting dough is medium-thick and a beautiful color. Divide it into two equal parts.

Step 8

Place the dough into molds, the bottoms of which are lined with parchment.

Step 9

Place in a preheated oven at 160 degrees Celsius (325 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes. Then turn off the oven, crack the door, and let it sit for 5-7 minutes.

Step 10

We take out the biscuits, turn them upside down in the pans and place them on a wire rack.

Step 11

Once they've cooled slightly, carefully remove them and place them back on the wire rack to cool. Then, cut them into the desired number of layers and begin assembling the cake.
