High protein Hummingbird cake with cream cheese frosting 

Ingredients for the cake:
  • Ingredients for cake:
  • 100g fresh banana
  • 20g almond meal
  • 30g buckwheat flour
  • 160g greek yoghurt
  • 1 egg, cracked and whisked
  • 20g chopped walnuts
  • 160g crushed pineapple (try to get one in natural juice not syrup!)
  • 40g @happywayau Vanilla pea protein powder
  • 20g desiccated coconut
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 tsp cinnamon 
​Ingredients for frosting:
  • 200g extra light Philadelphia 
  • 50g crushed pineapple 
  • 30g @happywayau vanilla whey protein (I used whey here instead of pea since it whips better).

 ​ Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees, fan forced.
  2. Blend banana and yoghurt together until combined.
  3. Pour into a bowl and whisk in the egg.
  4. Stir in all remaining ingredients.
  5. Stir until combined, then pour into a lined cake tin (or cupcake tin!).
  6. Cook in oven at 180 degrees celsius for 45-50 minutes.
  7. To make frosting: blend/whisk cream cheese, pineapple and whey together until fluffy. 
  8. Allow cake to cool before topping with frosting and additional dried pineapple.
  9. Cut into 8 pieces and enjoy!

​Serving information:
  • Serves: ​8 
  • Serving suggestion: eat fresh or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days! 
  • Macros per slice with frosting: 180 calories, 14C/7F/13P
  • Vegan alterations: swap yoghurt and cream cheese for coconut yoghurt or silken tofu, and use an egg replacer (e.g. flax!).
