Like our Banana Oat Bread, some of the sweetness in this recipe comes from fruit. In this case, it's apple sauce. Enjoy this simple cake toasted and smeared with nut butter (peanut butter, almond butter, sunflower seed butter) and served with a glass of milk or plant-based milk for a nutritious breakfast or snack. Protein helps us feel satisfied and pleasantly full, while fiber helps to keep our blood sugar stable so we don't crash, and this recipe has got both!
