1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 tsp almond extract
2/3 cup plain yogurt
Honey Lemon Glaze
3 Tbsp honey
Juice of 1 lemon
Recipe Preparation
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Prepare Beehive Cakelet Pan with baking spray containing flour and use a pastry brush to evenly coat the cavities of the pan.
In a small bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt and set aside. Using a mixer with a paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and almond extract and blend thoroughly. Mix in flour mixture and yogurt until smooth. Pour into prepared pan, filling each cavity 3/4 full. Gently tap pan on towel-covered counter to release air bubbles.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center of cakes comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cakes cool in pan for 8 minutes before inverting onto a cooling rack. Wash pan, prepare with baking spray and repeat with remaining batter.
For Honey Lemon Glaze, add honey and lemon juice to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and remove from heat as soon as bubbles/foam starts appearing. Let the glaze cool for a few minutes to thicken slightly. Once beehives cakes are ready to serve, drizzle glaze on top of cakes.
