⅔ Cup Cakes

These cakes are a balanced and tasty treat that's quick to whip up. To create these delicious cakes, start with the natural sweetness of 2/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce. Add creaminess and a protein boost with 2/3 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt (coconut yogurt for a vegan option). Pour in 2/3 cup of your choice of milk—I recommend almond milk for a nutty flavor.

Enhance the sweetness with a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Incorporate a teaspoon of baking soda for that perfect rise.

In the dry ingredients mix, combine 2/3 cup each of coconut flour, vanilla protein powder, and peanut butter powder. This blend ensures a balance of textures and flavors. Stir in 2/3 cup of dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate for that delightful chocolatey goodness.

Scoop the batter into cupcake molds or a mug, and bake until set.

The result? 2/3 Cup Cakes that are not only quick and easy to make but also a balanced and tasty treat. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors in every moist and satisfying bite!
