Have cake for breakfast with this grain-free “oatmeal” cake bursting with sweet blueberries!
Almond flour and shredded coconut give this cake a thick, grainy-like texture that resembles real oats without the grains. Plus, since it’s naturally sweetened with bananas, blueberries and honey, you won’t miss the processed sugar, either!
We recommend using a standing mixer to whip up this breakfast cake, but you can mix by hand as well. Just be sure not to overmix the batter, so it can rise into a light and fluffy cake!

This recipe calls for frozen blueberries, since fresh blueberries will weigh the batter down. You can even freeze your own fresh blueberries, then thaw and drain them well before using.
Start by mixing eggs, bananas, honey, vanilla and salt together until smooth. Then, slowly add the almond flour, coconut flakes and coconut oil until just combined – be careful not to overmix! Gently fold in the blueberries, then transfer to a baking pan and top with more coconut flakes. Bake for 40 minutes.
Enjoy your blueberry “oatmeal” cake warm, topped with banana slices and a drizzle of raw honey or maple syrup.
