RECIPE BACKSTORY
Some days call for a bit of sweet celebration. It's nice to be able to have a sweet treat that keeps baby on a healthy eating plan, too! We love these no-sugar, whole grain baby cakes. A full serving of whole grain and fruit in each little cake. Plus they are cute! I bake mine in a mini bundt, mostly because I like to say bundt, but you can use a muffin tin!
