Hands on History

So, Clay is currently studying ancient civilizations, and his current project required write about foods from ancient civilizations and then cook something.   One of the civilizations was Israel, so we picked Israel and decided on honey cake.   Well, he decided on it.   He wanted something sweet.  It's not vegan, but since Clay isn't vegan, we did what he wanted.   After some searching on line, he found this recipe from Tori Avey's blog:
 

Getting all the ingredients together.
The next step was adding the dry ingredients: the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.

 
Breaking the eggs
Adding the oil


Adding the brown sugar and mixing it all
together with the dry ingredients.



Chopping the dates, which we folded into the batter
Baking

Testing for doneness
Finished product, cooling

Tasting the final product

Ethan trying it out.
