Birthday Cake for Doggie Dear. Banana Carob Oat Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting


Ingredients
2 ripe bananas, mashed
4 tbsp honey
1 egg
2 cups water
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup carob chips
1 cup peanut butter
DirectionsPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using nonstick spray, coat an 8-inch cake pan and set aside.
In a bowl, mix the bananas, 3 tablespoons honey, egg and water together until combined. Then stir in the flour, baking powder and oats. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the carob chips on top. Use a fork to slightly mix in the carob chips in a marbling fashion; the chips should be slightly visible on the surface.
Bake the cake for 1 hour. Check and bake for an additional 15 minutes if you insert a toothpick and it does not come out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 30 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
As the cake is cooling on the rack, mix the peanut butter and remaining honey in a bowl until thoroughly incorporated to create the frosting. Using a spoon or spatula, spread the peanut butter frosting over the cake.

THE SERENITY PRAYER

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE;
COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN;
AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
