Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and thoroughly grease a standard bundt pan, then set aside.

Step 2

Topping: Add all topping ingredients to a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until butter is fully melted and sugar has dissolved. Transfer mixture to the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly along the bottom.

Step 3

Cake: In a large bowl, combine all cake batter ingredients and whisk just until smooth. Gently pour batter on top of the nut mixture, then bake for 38-42 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Step 4

Sauce: Start on the sauce as the cake bakes. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, lemon juice, and water and cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes. Stir in honey and continue cooking for 1 additional minute. Set sauce aside to cool and thicken.

Step 5

Allow the cake to cool for about 12 minutes then invert onto your desired serving plate. Drizzle the cooled sauce over the top.
