Can it be Four, already?
Four years ago today I'd been up most of the night.
Giving birth.
But by early morning the hard work was over and we had a sweet new baby boy.
How do they grow so fast?
When did my baby grow to be such a big boy?
For his birthday breakfast I made a yogurt-chocolate chip breakfast cake.
On fancy plates. :-)
It was quite good!
Not super healthy, but not too bad.
Birthday Yogurt Breakfast Cake
Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 ripe bananas
2 cups non-fat yogurt
2 large eggs (I used Ener-G egg replacer)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 scant cup mini chocolate chips
Preheat oven 350 degrees F. Spray 9x13 inch pan or line with a Silpat liner (recently on sale at Meijer for the 9x13 pan size!).
Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Blend banana, yogurt, egg replacer, and vanilla and beat for 2 minutes. Stir in chocolate chips. Spoon batter into the prepared pan. Bake about 35-40 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Serve warm or cool completely before serving.
Happy Birthday, Little D!!!
