- Preheat the oven to 325° F.
- Generously grease a 12 cup Bundt Pan with softened butter.
- In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, orange zest, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, blend the honey, yogurt, olive oil, milk, and orange juice.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones. Gently mix until fully combined. Try not to overmix. Pour the batter into the Bundt pan.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes. A toothpick stuck in the cake should come out with only a few crumbs adhering.
