Cake
2 large eggs, room temperature
175 grams granulated sugar (1 cup minus 2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons strong flavored honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
125 grams all-purpose flour (1 cup)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
4 ounces unsalted butter (1/2 cup)
1 medium tart apple
Topping
4 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0 F. Lightly grease a 9 inch springform pan.
2
Melt the butter and let it cool slightly.
3
Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, and baking powder.
4
Put the sugar in a medium bowl and whisk in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Whisk in the honey, salt and vanilla extract.
5
Peel and shred the apple. Use your hands or a fine mesh strainer to gently squeeze out the excess water. Set aside briefly.
6
With a rubber spatula, stir the flour into the egg/sugar mixture until there are no longer any streaks remaining in the batter. Gently fold in the melted butter until smooth, then fold in the shredded apple, making sure it is evenly dispersed.
7
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and smooth the top. Make the topping by combining the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle it evenly over top of the cake.
8
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 - 28 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the middle has a crackly, paper thin crust.
9
The cake may be served slightly warm, but it will also keep very well for several days in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
