- Egg4
- Vanilla1 tsp
- Honey6 tbsp
- Almond · ground100 g
- Semolina185 g
- Baking powder2 tsp

Instructions
- Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs one at a time, fully combining after each. Mix in the honey and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, mix the ground almonds, semolina, baking powder, salt and lemon zest.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a wooden spoon until well combined.
- Divide the batter among 6 mini loaf tins and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
- While the cakes bake, simmer the sugar, honey, lemon peel, thyme and water in a small saucepan over low heat for 10 minutes.
- Take the cakes out of the oven, pierce each one all over with a skewer and pour over the syrup. Return them to the oven for 10 minutes so they absorb the syrup.
- Cool on a wire rack before serving.
