Peanut Butter and Banana Breakfast Cake
Do not panic, this is not a “cake” in the sense we usually think of cakes! As much as I would love to offer a regular cake for breakfast, it doesn’t really help the weight loss cause. This “cake” contains bananas, peanut butter, eggs, almond flour and almond milk – healthy and nutritious ingredients full of energy, fat and protein. You can freeze slices of this and pull them out when you’re in a pinch.
