Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen #129: Roman Honey Cake

Time for Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen

It has been a long, long time since I posted a Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen post. We are still in the kitchen together, but we never really have new recipes to share. And the older girls are always coming up with new recipes from scratch. Without mommy's help. Once they get their recipes perfected, I will be posting them, but that will be Kids in the Kitchen, not Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen. My children are growing up!

I have the opportunity to come to you today with a Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen thanks to a review we are doing. We have been reviewing the Ancient Rome Online Unit Study from Techie Homeschool Mom. In fact, that review will be going live next week. We have been doing some great learning online, but there are also great hands-on projects. One of them was to make a Roman Honey Cake. Yum, was it tasty!

The original recipe can be found at Cookies, Cupcakes and Cardio.

It was so easy to make. Just three ingredients.

You'll need eggs, honey, and flour.

First the three eggs were cracked into a bowl. Then the children took turns beating them with an electric beater until they formed peaks.

Then we added the honey.

We beat it until it was mixed well. Then we slowly added the flour and folded it in.

I had never beat whole eggs until they formed stiff peaks before. I was also surprised how much this made from only 3 eggs, 7 oz of honey, and 2 oz offlour.

We then poured it into a 9 inch pan which I had greased and had a circle of wax paper placed onto the bottom.

All ready to go into the oven. It was baked at 330 degree for 40 minutes. 

Doesn't it look tasty?

I loosened the sides, turned it over onto a plate, and removed it, then I took off the wax paper.

We loved the sound of topping it with whipped cream (which we made from scratch) and drizzling it with honey.

If you go to the original post, you can watch a video of her making the cake. Though, it really wasn't difficult at all. I have got to make this for a fellowship meal sometime soon. Though, I am sure I'll have to make two.
