Pain D'Epices

5 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pan

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup buckwheat flour

1/3 cup almonds finely chopped

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

2/3 cup lavender honey

1 large egg yolk

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9"x5" loaf pan with butter

In a large bowl, combine the flours, almonds, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Add the honey, melted butter, and egg yolk and mix well.

Scrape the dough into the prepared pan and bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

Unmold and let cool at least slightly before serving. This is good at room temperature.
