3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup Greek yoghurt (plain, low-fat)
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips

Prepare

Preheat the oven to 350°F or 175°C and grease a 9×13-inch pan.

Make wet mix

Blend the wet ingredients like mashed bananas, unsweetened applesauce, Greek yoghurt, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix it well.

Add cake mix

Add the cake mix gradually to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined without overmixing.

Add flavorings

Add ground cinnamon, chopped nuts and chocolate chips to the batter to enhance the flavour.

Bake the cake

Pour the batter into a greased baking pan and bake it for 25-30 minutes. Check by inserting a toothpick and bake until it comes out clean.

Garnish

Allow the cake to cool, take it out on a wire rack, slice and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
