Healthy Smash Cake (For Baby's First Birthday)

• portions: 6 servings
• temps actif: 20 minutes
• temps total: 40 minutes

Ingrédients

1 ½ cups fine blanched almond flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)

½ cup ripe mashed banana (about 1 ½ bananas)

2 large eggs

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking powder

⅛ teaspoon salt

coconut whipped topping (homemade or store-bought OR plain full-fat yogurt OR frosting of choice)

fresh berries or sprinkles

Instructions

Prep

Preheat oven to 350°F and spray 3 (4-inch) mini springform pans with cooking spray. Set aside.

Blend

Whisk eggs in a medium mixing bowl. Add mashed banana and vanilla. Stir until combined.

Combine

Add almond flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Stir until just combined.

Bake

Divide batter evenly between the 3 springform pans and bake for 20 minutes or until the tops of the cakes are golden in color and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Cool

Remove cakes from the oven, let cool for 10-20 minutes before carefully removing from the pans.

Decorate

Let layers cool completely before stacking and icing with frosting of choice. I've tested plain full-fat yogurt as well as coconut whipped topping. For toppings, I like the idea of naturally-colored sprinkles or fresh berries.
