Healthy First Birthday Smash Cake Without Sugar

• portions: 6 servings
• temps actif: 20 minutes
• temps total: 45 minutes

Ingrédients

3/4 cup (6 ounces) Whole milk Plain Greek Yogurt

1 cup (240g) mashed bananas, about 3 medium (make sure to use very ripe ones)

2 eggs, beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup raspberries or blueberries (optional)

1/4 cup coconut oil (optional, see note)

2 cups (200g) rolled oats

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Grease or line cake pans with parchment paper.

Add oats to a food processor or blender and blend into a flour. You can also use oat flour if you have it. Combine with the rest of dry ingredients.

In a separate bowl, combine all the wet ingredients together.

Combine dry and wet ingredients and mix until everything's well incorporated.

Evenly distribute the batter into three 5 inch cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Let the cakes cool slightly in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

In the meantime prepare the frosting of choice(see note).

Slice the rounded top off of each cake to create a flat surface. Add dollops of frosting to first layer of cake and spread evenly. Place the second layer on top and repeat. You can go a step further and frost the entire cake.

Notes

For the frosting:

Choose any of of these options

Cream Cheese – Soften an 8 ounce block at room temperature for at least an hour. Transfer to a bowl, and using an electric or stand mixer, beat until fluffy.

Coconut Cream – First, refrigerate a 15 ounce can of FULL FAT coconut cream (not milk!) overnight. I personally love the Aroy-D brand. DON’T shake. Carefully scoop out the cream at the top, leaving the liquid at the bottom of the can. Add to a bowl, and using an electric or stand mixer, beat until light and fluffy.

Whipped Cream – Beat 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. Using an electric or stand mixer, beat until it’s the consistency of whipped cream.

Greek Yogurt – I don’t recommend regular yogurt as the consistency is too thin. You will need 1-2 cups depending on how much of the cake you want to frost.

To any of these options, you can add some vanilla extract, maple syrup, date syrup, and/or freeze-dried fruits for flavor and color.
