    Something went amiss on this one. The batter was like milk and, of course, did not rise. This is the first AB recipe failed. I followed the recipe but saw 4 eggs, 1 cup of honey and 1 1/2 cups of flour could mean soup. Rating the recipe is not fair because either there is a typo or I seriously missed something

    You don't have to save this recipe. It is a good one and I appreciate its being shared. The insights on baking and cooking with honey, the adjustments required, are very helpful. There's not much of a nod toward nutrition in most food circles, everyone bowing to the god of flavor. I would rather adjust my taste buds to less sweet, less rich, etc. and live longer and stronger. This is a quality contribution to the effort.

    I followed this recipe exactly. It took almost one hour to bake and was very dense. The flavor of the orange was overpowered by the honey. It was definitely not what I expected; I will not make it again.
