Ingredients
- * 1 cup whole wheat flour 240g
- * 1/2 cup almond flour 60g
- * 1 cup Greek yogurt 240ml
- * 2 large eggs
- * 1/4 cup melted coconut oil 60ml
- * 1/2 cup honey 120ml
- * 2 tsp vanilla extract 10ml
- * 1 tsp baking powder 5g

- * 2 tbsp ground cinnamon 30g
- * 1/4 cup brewed coffee cooled (60ml)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch cake tin with coconut oil.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a larger bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, melted coconut oil, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Slowly pour the brewed coffee into the mixture, ensuring it's cool to avoid curdling.
- Gradually fold in the dry ingredient mix into the wet mixture. Keep stirring to ensure a lump-free batter.
- Crack in the eggs, one at a time, and gently mix until just combined.
- Sprinkle the ground cinnamon and fold it into the batter, giving your Healthy High Protein Cinnamon Coffee Cake its signature taste.
- Pour the batter into the pre-greased cake tin.
- Place the tin in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once done, let it cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely.

2. Ensure the brewed coffee is cooled to avoid curdling the mixture.
3. Always sift dry ingredients to prevent lumps and get a smoother cake texture.
4. Don't overmix the batter as it might make the Healthy High Protein Cinnamon Coffee Cake dense.
