These Raspberry & Nectarine Mini Cake are tender, moist, delicious and healthy at the same time. They only require a few staple ingredients and 5 minutes to throw together. Make these raspberry and nectarine mini cakes for breakfast, afternoon snack or serve them for dessert. They are both vegan, gluten, oil, nut and sugar free.
Baking things that can be eaten both for breakfast, as an afternoon snack or served for dessert are my favorite bakes! Then you can just bake something delicious that you like and indulge all day round. The funny thing is that most people think “healthy” baking is boring, dry and can’t be as delicious or sweet as a “regular” dessert, which is completely incorrect. When I bake and serve my sweet breakfast, afternoon snacks and treats or desserts people always say “this does not taste that healthy, it tastes like regular sweets/dessert”. Even though they’re usually made without any oil/butter and sugar. There are so many ingredients and ways of making baked goods juicy, moist, flavorful and perfectly delicious with more nutritious ingredients. These raspberry and nectarine mini cakes are a perfect example! They are tender, sweet, delicious yet light and fresh at the same time. They’re made with mashed banana and apple sauce which adds both sweetness and makes them moist and juicy, replacing butter/oil. Oat flour because it’s one of my favorite flours to bake with. It is easy to make by your own at home, very wallet friendly, nutritious and a great alternative if you want to bake gluten free. To add more taste and sweetness to it there is a little bit of sugar free granulated sugar, cinnamon and vanilla that adds a warm and comfy feeling. They are topped with tasty sweet nectarines and raspberries.
A few tips:
- Use a ripe banana to make sure it is really soft and sweet, since it adds both moist and sweetness to the cakes.
- Use a sugar free apple sauce, either home cooked or store bought. If you make your own make sure to use sweet apples and not sour once.
- The amount of sweetener can easily be adjusted according to taste.
- Bake the mini cakes until a toothpick comes out clean, but do not bake them for too long. You don’t want the cakes nor the nectarines and raspberries turn out dry.
- Serve these mini cakes just as they are, with milk in a breakfast bowl, greek yogurt, ice cream or whipped cream.
