 <\/p>\n

In honour of BULK POWDERS\u00ae 11th<\/sup> Birthday why not try making your very own high protein birthday cake? This recipe makes a four-tiered, chocolate and banana cake, which should yield around 20 slices. The quantities can be halved to make a more sensibly-sized bake.<\/p>\n

INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.) Preheat the oven to 170 degrees C.<\/p>\n

2.) Grease four 7-inch cake tins with butter or coconut oil, line with baking paper & then grease the baking paper (you\u2019re going to need all the grease!).<\/p>\n

3.) Break the bananas up into pieces in a large bowl and mash them until you achieve a puree-like consistency.<\/p>\n

4.) Crack the eggs into a bowl and briefly beat them. Add these to the banana puree along with the Agave\/Honey and Vanilla Extract.<\/p>\n

5.) Melt the Coconut Oil in a microwave, allow to cool slightly then stir into the wet mixture.<\/p>\n

6.) In a separate bowl, combine the Pure Whey Protein, GF Oats, Coconut Flour, Cocoa Powder, Baking Powder and Cacao Nibs.<\/p>\n

7.) Pour the wet mix into the dry mix and stir until combined. You should achieve a fairly dense cake-batter-like consistency. If you think that it looks a bit dry then add a little more Coconut Oil.<\/p>\n

8.) Separate into the four tins, bake in the centre of the oven for 10-12 minutes. This is based upon using a fan-assisted oven, cooking times for conventional ovens may differ.<\/p>\n

9.) Remove from the oven & leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins. Take the cakes out of the tins & remove the baking paper. Leave to cool fully on a wire rack.<\/p>\n

10.) To make the icing, combine 500g Skyr yoghurt with 2 scoops of vanilla flavoured Micellar Casein. Mix until you have a thick consistency.<\/p>\n

11.) Stack that baby up! Decorate with Chocolate Whey Balls\u2122<\/a>, Chocolate Protein Bites\u2122<\/a>, High Protein Cookies<\/a>, High Protein Snack Bars<\/a>, Cacao Nibs<\/a>, Dried Cranberries<\/a> or just a bucket-load of sprinkles. You could also try making our Birthday Protein Truffles<\/a>.<\/p>\n
