This cake comes out of a necessity: cut down gluten and sugar without giving up the pleasure of a nice slice of cake with my morning coffee. Moreover, I also wanted a healthy snack rich in natural protein rather than processed protein-food or protein-shake, for my post work-outs at the gym.
Some research on Google, a little customisation and additions from my intuition and here you go: a really delicious cake with a rich nutty flavor and a sweetness coming only from the fruit I used to substitute the baking sugar.
I can guarantee you will become addicted to it! I am already so much that I am already planning to experiment with other versions and flavors, such as chocolate for example 😉
