1 t allspice<br>
1 t ground ginger (you may sub. with crystallized ginger in syrup, if you wish)<br><br>
oven at 350o.<br><br>
grease and flour a 10 c bundt pan (this is very important; i always forget to do so, and i end up digging the cake out of the pan with a serving spoon).<br><br>
cream the butter and sugar together in a bowl. add the honey and eggs. beat.<br><br>
in another bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients, incl. the spices. mix.<br><br>
add the flour to the butter/egg mixture. beat to combine. stir in the apples.<br><br>
pour into the bundt pan. bake for at least one hour. it will probably require 1hr 20min. but, check it every 5 minutes after an hour has elapsed.
