Good For You Banana Cake

The hubby and I are currently on our second 24 Day Challenge so that means, eating as clean as possible. Once in a while I get this urge to bake something but I wanted it to be something I could eat and not feel guilty about. I know, you are thinking no baked anything that is good for you can taste good... wrong!

I was very happy with how this came out, heck it even passed my hubbys taste test, who by the way told me it was going to suck because it was a healthier banana bread. I WIN! Whole wheat flour replaces white flour, minimal butter, organic yogurt to keep it moist and organic honey to add some sweetness, yup no granulated sugar. The taste & texture really is wonderful!

Good For You Banana Cake

• 3 large or 4 small very ripe bananas, mashed
• 2 Tbsp butter, softened
• 6 Tbsp organic honey
• 1 egg
• 6 oz organic low fat vanilla yogurt
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 Tbsp cinnamon
• a bit of powdered sugar to garnish

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a hand mixer, blend together the banana, butter, honey, egg, yogurt and vanilla until well combined.

In a small bowl mix together the dry ingredients. Slowly mix the the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Do not over mix.

Spray a bundt pan with non stick spray and add the mixture into the pan and spread relatively evenly. Bake for approx 22-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Sprinkle a little dusting of powdered sugar onto the cake once cooled.

HAPPY EATS!!!
