Servings: 12 servings
- 1 large egg
- 180 grams (⅔ cup) Greek yogurt
- 1 ripe banana about 100 grams (3.5 oz.), or ½ cup applesauce
- 80 ml (⅓ cup) maple syrup or honey
- 150 grams (1 ½ cup) oat flour or preferred flour

- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ⅙ tsp salt
- 60 ml (¼ cup) milk of choice
Optional Ingredients
- 50 grams (¼ cup) chocolate chips dark or extra dark
Preheat oven to 180ºC (360°F) and fold a 20 cm (7.8 inches) cake mold with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mash the banana then combine with Greek yogurt, egg, maple syrup, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Stir well until you get a smooth mixture.
Add into the wet mixture oat flour, almond flour (or more oat flour) and baking powder. Stir the ingredients together while pouring in the milk gradually.
Mix in the chocolate chips, if you desire.
Transfer your Greek yogurt cake batter to the prepared mold, then bake in hot oven for about 30 minutes. The cake is ready when a toothpick inserted into its center comes out clean.
