Healthy Rendition : Apple Spice Cake
March 26, 2015
Hey Loves,
This recipe was a labour of love, for my love. My Mister was going through something last year and was on a VERY restrictive diet.I wanted to make him some comfort food but his diet was SOO tricky. I made a list of everything he was able to eat. Did some experimenting and created this bad boy! Its amazing how something as simple as cake can lift someone's spirits. To this day it is still his favourite out of all my healthy renditions. :)
I've added a couple ingredients since he's been better. But this is pretty close to the original recipe.
