If you’re feeling like something subtly sweet and summery, this berry protein-infused cake with bursts of juicy blueberries is bound to satisfy. Moist and flavourful, this cake has just shy of 5g of protein per serve and is made with wholemeal flour, apple puree, and Balance Berry flavoured Plant Protein.

You might prefer to bake this mixture in muffin trays. This way you can freeze the leftovers so you aren’t tempted to eat them all at once!
