Notes

  • Any oil/yogurt/dairy-free alternative works for this recipe, you can even mix them making sure to use a total of 1/4 cup. Nutrition info is based on 2% greek yogurt.
  • Recipe as written is sweet enough for snacks. You will want to add more sugar/sweetener for a dessert cake, or use the icing below:
  • To make a quick icing mix together 2 tbsp powdered sugar and 2 tsp maple syrup (15 g each) until smooth and drizzle on! Really turns this cake into a rich dessert.
