It’s been way too long since I’ve pulled together a good snack cake. I used to make them all the time and decided during my weekend meal prep that it was high time to bring them back! I especially love them because they work for breakfast, snack and even dessert!

Any fruit really works with these cakes, so you can feel free to have a little fun! I do recommend always utilizing bananas as they help to impart some sweetness into the cake but any other fruit you want to fold in will work!
I chose to fold in some fresh strawberries, and to infuse even more strawberry into the cake, I also utilized siggi’s strawberry yogurt. siggi’s simple ingredients and lower sugar impart a lightly sweetened strawberry flavor while also offering a nice boost of protein.

I like to serve mine up with another dollop of yogurt and a few fresh strawberries & bananas, but it would also be great with a little peanut butter (making it taste exactly like a pb&j!) or just right out of the pan!
With a moist and tender cake this good, it’s really hard to go wrong!

However you choose to serve it, I promise everyone in the house will love it. I actually ended up making a second one since it was in such high demand in our household!

I made this last night (with regular whole wheat flour) and it is so delicious, plus it made my house smell amazing. Ate a slice topped with Greek yogurt, banana and strawberries and was so happy about it 🙂
