how to make it

making this breakfast cake is as easy as mixing a few simple ingredients and popping it in the oven. here’s how to do it:

  1. preheat your oven to 350°f and lightly grease a small baking dish (you can also use a small ramekin if you prefer a more individual-sized portion).
  2. in a bowl, mash up the overripe banana until smooth, then whisk in the peanut butter, egg, and vanilla.
  3. add in the protein powder, oat flour, and baking powder, stirring until everything is well combined.
  4. pour the batter onto the parchment paper lined tray and bake for 15 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. while the cake cools, mix together the topping ingredients: cream cheese, peanut butter, vanilla paste, and honey until smooth.
  6. spread the topping over the cooled cake, slice, and enjoy!

how to make it vegan

turning this breakfast cake into a vegan-friendly option is simple. here’s how to substitute for the non-vegan ingredients:

  • eggs: swap the egg for a flax or chia egg. mix 1 tbsp ground flax or chia seeds with 3 tbsp water, let it sit for a few minutes to thicken.
  • cream cheese: use dairy-free cream cheese for the topping, such as violife or kite hill.
  • honey: replace honey with maple syrup or another vegan-friendly sweetener like agave or coconut nectar.
