Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
Step 2
In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat 2 eggs and 0.5 cup sugar until pale and thick, about 3 minutes. Then mix in 0.25 cup oil.
Step 4
Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until just combined. Pour into the pan and bake until golden and a toothpick comes out clean, about 20-25 minutes.
Step 5
While cake bakes, warm 0.5 cup honey with 0.25 cup water in a small saucepan until runny, about 2 minutes. Pour hot syrup over the warm cake, let it soak in for 10 minutes, then slice and serve.
