How to Make Oatmeal Honey Cakes
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

- In another bowl, whisk together the honey, milk, eggs, melted butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle extra oats on top for a rustic look.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle with additional honey before serving for an extra touch of sweetness!
