You know that I am all about easy and healthy food, and what better than a nutritious cake you can eat at any time of the day, and make in a blender?!
This cake is yummy cold or warmed up, by itself or topped with coconut yogurt, maple syrup and fruit, and is a great way of using up your fruit that has been sitting in the fridge for a little too long.
The fruits in it create a natural sweetness, and you can definitely make this without an added sweetener if you prefer. You can also switch up the fruits to suit your preference and tolerance.
