Preheat the oven to 325°F.

Add 3/4 cup of oil to the mixture and beat for about 2 to 2.5 minutes.

Spray an original Bundt pan with non-stick spray that contains flour, or grease with solid shortening and flour.

In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup of light brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon together.

Add honey to the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture and dollop it on top of the batter in the Bundt pan.

Use a knife to swirl the honey mixture through the cake batter.

If desired, sprinkle walnuts on top of the batter or wait until after baking to add them.

Bake in the preheated oven for 38 to 40 minutes, checking around 30 minutes for doneness.

Once baked, turn the cake out of the pan carefully.

In a bowl, mix confectioner sugar, milk, and a teaspoon of vanilla to create a glaze.

Pour the glaze over the warm cake and add walnuts on top if desired.
