Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup honey
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup strong brewed coffee
1/2 cup orange juice

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Add honey, vegetable oil, coffee, orange juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
