Preparation

5-6 yolks
4 egg whites
3-4 tablespoons of honey
300 g flour
200 g sugar
1 baking powder
yeast like a walnut
4 tablespoons oil + oil to grease the pan
baking paper
Bee honey is mixed with sugar in a pot on the fire. Stir until melted. Add baking powder. Stir until the composition turns white. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. After it has cooled, add the yolks one by one. After the yolks have been incorporated, add the flour, then the yeast dissolved in water or milk. Pour, in turn, 4 tablespoons of oil. The beaten egg whites are added to the composition and mixed carefully so that it does not become the elastic composition. In a pan greased with oil and lined with parchment, pour the composition, then bake on the right heat for an hour.
