Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Oil two loaf pans and line bottoms with parchment paper; grease the parchment as well.
- Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and allspice. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, gradually adding the sugar. Beat until thick and light in color, about 5 minutes. Beat in the oil, honey and coffee. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture. Chop the almonds coarsely and mix with raisins; stir into batter.
- Divide batter between the two prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle with reserved slivered almonds.
- Bake in preheated oven until a tester inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, 65 to 75 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes and remove from pan.
- To Make Glaze: combine 1 1/2 cups honey, lemon juice, lemon zest and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When glaze reaches a thick consistency, remove from heat and drizzle over warm cake.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F with a rack in the middle of the oven. Grease and flour or line with parchment paper two 8 1/2- by 4 1/2-inch loaf pans.
- In the bowl of a mixer, combine the brown sugar, salt, eggs, oil, honey, cinnamon, cloves and allspice and mix, using the flat (paddle) beater at low-medium speed until well blended, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the water and baking soda and continue mixing until blended.
- Add the flour 1 cup at a time, letting each addition blend before adding the next. Continue beating for about 10 minutes. The batter will be loose, stringy and very, very sticky.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans, top with nuts and/or fruit, if desired.
- Bake 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until done.
- Remove to a rack and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before turning the cakes out of the pans.
LEKACH
A Rosh Hashanah favorite, Lekach gets its sweetness from honey and sugar, warmth from ground cinnamon, allspice and clove and a hint of earthiness from coffee. Dust it with some extra confectioners' sugar before serving for a beautiful dessert to celebrate the Jewish New Year.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle lightly with flour, making sure to coat all sides and crevices. Tap out any excess flour and set aside.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, allspice, salt and cloves in a large bowl, whisking to combine. Whisk together the granulated sugar, honey, oil, coffee, orange juice, rye if using, vanilla and eggs in a separate large bowl until smooth and combined. Pour the wet mixture into the dry, then whisk until the batter just comes together and no lumps remain. Transfer to the prepared pan.
- Bake until well browned at the edges and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. (If there's any sticking, carefully run a small offset spatula around the edges of the pan before inverting). Lightly dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.
HONEY CAKE (LEKACH)
This really is a delicious cake - very spicy, and with a great texture. Kind of like gingerbread - but more complex.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line the base and sides of a 20cm square baking tin. Warm the oil, golden syrup, honey and sugar in a small pan to dissolve the sugar. Stir to combine, then leave to cool. Add the tea and beaten eggs.
- Lightly whisk the flour, baking powder, spices and a pinch of salt in a large bowl to combine. Make a well in the dry ingredients and mix in the wet ingredients, using a whisk or wooden spoon, until combined and lump-free.
- Pour the batter into the lined tin and sprinkle with the almonds, if you like. Bake for 50-55 mins, until the cake springs back when gently pressed and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Don't open the oven for the first 45 mins of baking.
- Leave to cool completely in the tin on a wire rack. Wrap well and keep for three to four days before eating, so the flavour can improve. Cut into nine squares to serve.
