In a large bowl beat
together the honey, margarine or butter, egg, buttermilk and
vanilla. Mix until emulsified and smooth. Add the salt,
flour and baking soda. Beat well. Turn the batter into a
well oiled 9-inch round pan. Bake at 350° for 25
minutes. Remove from oven and cool before serving. This
may be frosted if desired. It is the equivalent of a Plain
Yellow Cake. This recipe is easily doubled for a layer cake, or
if you want enough batter to bake it in a 9 by 13-inch pan.
