Foods like eggs, oatmeal, and sausage usually come to mind when I think about breakfast. But if you prefer a sweet breakfast instead of a savory one, you’ll love this Microwave Breakfast Cake.
Mashed banana replaces the sugar and oil, so you have a nutritious, naturally sweetened treat that is packed with fiber.
Plus, it takes less than 10 minutes to make, so you can get out the door in a hurry
