Medianyk (honey cake)

Yield: 1 servings

Measure Ingredient
4 ounces Butter
4 larges Eggs
14 ounces Honey
14 ounces Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
½ teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
½ teaspoon Ground Cloves

Cream the butter and separate the eggs. Add the room temperature yolks, one at a time, to the butter and beat well. Mix in the honey.

Sift the flour, baking powder, and spices twice and add to the butter mixture. Whip the egg whites until stiff. Fold a little of the egg whites into the batter, then add the rest of them, folding them gently into the batter. Pour the batter into a guttered and floured loaf pan. Bake in a preheated 350 Degrees F. oven until firm on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.

Cool, in the pan, for 10 minutes, then remove and finish cooling on a wire rack. From: Earl Shelsby Date: 04-08-95 (11) Cooking
