A guilt-free, protein-packed treat with the creamy goodness of Greek yogurt—moist, tender, and tangy, this cake delivers indulgence and nourishment in every bite. Perfect for coffee time, post-workout refueling, or a light dessert.

Ingredients

  • Greek yogurt – 1 cup
  • Almond flour – ½ cup (gluten-free option)
  • Rolled oats – ½ cup
  • Protein powder – ¼ cup
  • Large eggs – 2
  • Honey – ¼ cup (can substitute maple syrup or other sweeteners)
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Baking powder – ½ teaspoon
  • Cinnamon – ½ teaspoon
  • Salt – ¼ teaspoon
  • Milk – ¼ cup

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Grease or line a baking pan.
  • In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract.
  • In another bowl, combine almond flour, rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the yogurt mixture. Add milk, stirring until batter is smooth.
  • Transfer batter to prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is golden.

Notes

  • Gluten-Free: Use certified gluten-free oats and protein powder.

  • Sweetener Swaps: Honey can be replaced with maple syrup, agave nectar, or stevia—adjust to taste.

  • Mix-Ins: Add chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit sparingly to avoid weighing down the batter.

  • Test for Doneness: A toothpick should come out clean or with a few crumbs; cake should pull slightly from pan edges.
