I have no idea what I was doing when I cooked this. I wanted to experiment making a honey flavoured bread or heavy cake and this was the end result. Its a cross between a dense bread or cake. Its an interesting texture. don’t expect bread, don’t expect cake.
This would be delicious toasted under the grill or with some sliced banana and a drizzle of honey over it. Even a smear of jam on it would be delicious, especially my Strawberry and Vanilla Bean or Thick Set Raspberry Jams.
My boys liked a slice of this in their lunchboxes as is. This experiment has become a regular.
