How to Make Apple Cake With Warm Honey Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add ½ cup honey and beat until well combined.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 cup lemon juice and 4 cups peeled and diced apples.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
  9. **For the Honey Sauce:** In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup honey, ¼ cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon butter, and a pinch of salt.
  10. Pour the honey sauce evenly over the cake batter in the pan.
  11. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
