Cherry Almond Breakfast Cakes
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon Melted Coconut Oil, Plus More For Ramekins
- 2-1/2 teaspoons Real Maple Syrup, Divided
- 1/8 teaspoons Pure Almond Extract
- 3 Tablespoons Almond Milk (or Milk Of Your Choice)
- 1/4 cups Spelt Flour (or Whole Wheat Flour)
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Raw Slivered Almonds, Plus More For Sprinkling (optional)
- 1/3 cups Pitted And Halved Cherries
- 2/3 cups Nonfat Plain Dairy Yogurt Or Dairy-free Yogurt
- Preheat toaster oven to 350u0b0F and lightly oil 5-ounce ramekins.
- In a coffee cup, stir together coconut oil, 2 teaspoons maple syrup, almond extract and almond milk until well combined. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Stir maple-milk-oil mixture into flour and mix just until combined. Pour batter into prepared ramekins, sprinkle almonds evenly over batter and arrange cherry halves sliced-side down, gently pressing them into batter.
- Place ramekins on a cookie sheet (makes it easier to remove the cooked ramekins) and bake at 350u0b0F for 9-11 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow cakes to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
- Top cooled cakes with a scoop of yogurt, drizzle with remaining maple syrup and sprinkle with a few sliced almonds.
