photo

With the change of seasons usually comes a change in foods and flavors that represent them.  Nothing exudes fall like the robust flavors of pumpkin, apple, and cinnamon.  Both the taste and smells of these ingredients gives me a calming sense of warmth that’s much needed in the fall season’s cooler temperatures.  This week’s recipe features a mug cake full of cinnamon flavor that’s a perfect meal for those chilly fall mornings.

Ingredientes:

Cake

  • 1/3 cup quick oats
  • 1 1/2 tbsp whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 tbsp nonfat  plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp + 1/8 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp lowfat milk
  • 2 tbsp raisins

Frosting

  • 2 spoonfulls nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tbsp Vanilla whey protein powder
  • Truvia or other sweetener (to taste)

Direcciones: 

Cake
