Anyways... just because this recipe says its cake, does not mean it is going to be the death of your diet. It's been a while since I baked and since I started a new job, I decided it was time to bring back my usual routine of testing recipes out on the masses. Since I work at a spa (where obviously, a healthy way of life is a priority), this recipe includes antioxidants and very little fat. It went over quite well at our 7:45a meeting this morning. I've made another coffee cake before but I have to say that this one is a bit more delicious.
Ingredients
Cake
- 1 and 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup quick oats
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/3 cup stevia baking sugar (or like-substitute)
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1 cup fresh or frozen berries
Topping
- 2 tbsp whole wheat flour
- 3 tbsp dark brown sugar (I used the real stuff for the topping)
- 2 tbsp cold Earth Balance (or butter)
- 1/4 cup quick oats
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients from the cake listing.
- In a smaller bowl, blend together the egg, milk and applesauce.
- Pour the contents of the small bowl into the mixing bowl and stir until moist, then fold in the berries.
- Coat an 8 inch glass baking dish with cooking spray and spread the batter into the dish. Ensure the mixture reaches the edges as it will be a bit thick
- In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the topping. Use a fork so that the mixture is crumbly. Pour the topping over the batter.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 20 minutes or until it passes the toothpick test.
Bellini anyone? :) Enjoy!
