I have been busy working on so many different projects with my business this week, I feel like my mind is being pulled in every direction. I love being busy and productive, but sometimes I wish there would be an end to the madness. My lists only seem to be growing. Thankfully, I have been able to grab one of these healthy cake bars in-between hours working on web site development, editing, and writing up papers. Working from home, I realize that there is never an escape unless I make one, so I have been trying to balance my time better, but boy is it waaaaay easier said than done. When I go to bed there are tasks begging for attention and when I wake there are a million things to dive into. My mind is always in high gear creating, planning, and learning… and I love it! I feel so blessed to do something I am so passionate about every day I wake.
Snack Cake Ingredients
This snack cake is sooo moist, it practically melts in your mouth! I used coconut palm sugar for this recipe. You can learn more about coconut palm sugar here. I usually bake with maple syrup, but I decided to give this recipe a go with coconut sugar and I am LOVING how it turned out! I feeling that there will be many more coconut sugar baking addictions coming to this blog.

Looks yummy! Can you substitute a different kind of flour for the almond flour? I need a nut-free alternative. Thanks!
Hi Suzanne, you could try oat flour?
