Breakfast Cake


DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY*

*I'm not a nutritionist, but my best guess is it's healthier than cheesecake

Breakfast Cake (with greek yogurt and strawberries)

 The real truth is I’ll eat cake for breakfast with or without a healthy slant to it. But this recipe gave me less guilt.

Recipe:

  • Chocolate cake mix
  • Can of Pumpkin
  • Milk (to thin out the batter a little)
  • Fat Free Vanilla Greek Yogurt (has more protein then regular yogurt)
  • Fresh or Frozen Fruit (I had strawberries)


Mix:

  • Combine the can of pumpkin and the cake mix.
  • While stirring if it looks too thick add a splash of milk or two.
  • Pour and scrape into a cake pan. 
  • For baking combine the instructions on the box with your best judgement
    • It may take a little less time (depends on your oven). 
    • My oven runs hotter so everything cooks faster.
  • Let the cake cool over night.
    • Or til it wont burn you
  • In the morning cut out a slice of cake, and add your yogurt and fruit.
Cake Mix in Pan

  • Tadah!
  • You now have cake that
    •  wasn’t baked with oils 
    •  was mixed with squash, 
    • is topped with a healthy protein rich yogurt and fruit.   
  • Yep, pat yourself on the back and have a large slice of Breakfast Cake!
