Posted by Strawberry, honey, and oats mini cakes can serve as a guilt-free evening snack. They look and taste fresh.
Baking with kiddo almost every week has become a tradition post the lockdown. My son seems to enjoy the process, as I let him help me bake. We bake healthy cookies, brownies, muffins, donuts, etc. which go into his lunchbox and double up as our evening snack. I make it a point to include a fruit and keep it refined sugar-free. Honey, jaggery, palm sugar are the usual sweeteners.
My little one loves bananas and doesn’t mind saving a couple for baking. This time, however, he wanted cupcakes with strawberries for a family tea party. Thanks to his idea, we sat down together for a cup of tea with these beauties.
They are moist and perfectly sweet. Hope you enjoy them with your evening cuppa!!
