Almond flour Apple Zucchini Breakfast Cake

Cake for breakfast?!?! Yes ma’am! This almond flour apple zucchini breakfast cake is delicious and nutritious! It’s packed with vegetables and fruits as well as proteins and energy sustaining carbs to get your day going on the right or left (I’ve got you lefties out there) foot.

This cake will store on the counter for a day but will stay the very best if refrigerated because of all the zucchini and apple in the cake. I love to add a little powdered sugar glaze on top to give it an extra measure of sweetness but it’s totally optional and this cake is great without it. Serve warm or cold and enjoy!
