There’s something about autumn I just can’t resist. The crisp air, breathtaking colors, fall fashions, flavors, and football – you name it – I love it all.

Combine dry ingredients in large mixing bowl.
Melt butter and pour into a medium size mixing bowl.Whisk together with oil. Add sugars, vanilla, honey, and orange juice. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking gently with each new addition. Add buttermilk. Whisk together til mixture is smooth.
Make well in the bottom of dry ingredients. Pour in wet ingredients gradually, whisking gently. Do not over-mix. Stop when all ingredients are combined.
Pour evenly into a greased 12-cup Bundt pan.
Bake for 50-60 minutes until top is golden brown and knife inserted into center comes out clean.
