This vanilla cake without butter or oil is my yummy and healthy GoTo to make me delicious guilt-free desserts. I cut it into small cubes and assemble parfaits that are inspired by strawberry shortcakes. I also serve it with fruit or chocolate sauce. It’s also delicious with the pear and vanilla sauce.
I like to make a mixture of white flour and spelt flour to improve the nutritional value of the recipe. I also include Greek yogurt for more protein. A nice balance!
