Despite being sugar free* and fat reduced, these are some incredibly tasty treats. Perfect substitute for cake, and great for after exercise. It has a nice spongy texture.

I do want to note, that although these are undoubtedly healthier than normal cake, protein does not necessarily equal healthy. Although fat reduced, they still contain some fat from all the nuts (so at least the good kinds of fat!), but it doesn't mean you can eat as many of them as you like without consequence. Any kind of food, even the really healthy ones, should be enjoyed in moderate amounts.

*Although the recipe doesn't call for sugar, it doesn't mean that its completely sugar free if you still use peanut butter or chocolate containing sugar. Read the ingredients list of your products if you want the cake to be completely sugar free.

You'll need: (for app. 8 servings)

1 generous spoonful peanut butter

1 banana (preferably very yellow or unripe)

1 egg (medium)

A spoonful protein powder (app. 25g). I used vanilla flavour, but I guess you can also use cocoa or banana flavour.

A splash of milk

50g of hazelnuts (or other unsalted nuts)

1 spoonful coconut flakes

1 spoonful oat meal

1 spoonful unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

If you want to increase the flavour of chocolate, add more cocoa powder. If you want to increase more peanut flavour, decrease the amount of cocoa powder, or leave it out.

Optional:

Coconut flakes or chopped nuts to sprinkle on top

or

Dark chocolate (at least 70%) for coating. (100g)

Why the dinosaur, you ask? Well its obvious, isn't it? T-rexes loves protein! I'm sure they love cake too, if they had a chance to have some.
