Como fazer Greek Almond Honey Cake

**Make the Honey Syrup:** In a saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups honey and 1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed orange juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
**Simmer:** Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface.
**Cool:** Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely.
**Preheat Oven & Prep Pan:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
**Dry Ingredients:** In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups almond flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
**Meringue:** In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar until stiff, glossy peaks form.
**Wet Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks, 1/2 cup honey, 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup slivered almonds, 1/4 cup orange juice concentrate, and 1 tablespoon orange zest.
**Combine:** Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
**Fold in Meringue:** Gently fold in 1/4 of the meringue into the batter to lighten it, then fold in the remaining meringue until just combined. A few white streaks are okay.
**Bake:** Pour batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with 1/4 cup blanched, slivered almonds. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
**Syrup Magic:** While the cake is still hot, evenly pour the cooled honey syrup over the top.
**Absorb the Syrup:** Gently poke the cake with a toothpick several times to help the syrup absorb.
**Cool & Serve:** Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving. Enjoy a slice with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream (optional).
