Total time: PT40M

Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Protein Pancake Mix (42g, or any just-add-water pancake mix)
- ⅓ cup Rolled Oats (30g, or more Pancake Mix)
- ⅓ cup Zero Calorie Brown Sugar Replacement (64g)
- 1½ tsp Cinnamon
- ¼ cup Semi-Soft Butter (56g)
- 1 cup Protein Pancake Mix (126g, or any just-add-water pancake mix)
- ½ cup Vanilla Whey-Casein Protein Powder (45g)
- ⅓ cup Unflavored Plant Protein Powder (or Whey-casein, 30g)
- ¾ tsp Cinnamon
- 1 cup Non-fat Plain Greek Yogurt (225g)
- ¾ cup Unsweetened Applesauce (180g)
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Egg White (30ml)

Instructions
1. [For the Streusel:] In a small bowl, combine the pancake mix, rolled oats, brown sugar replacement and cinnamon. Add the semi-soft butter and use your fingers or a fork to work it in until the mixture looks like wet sand with small clumps. Work quickly so the butter stays cold.
2. [For the Cake:] Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8" baking pan with parchment paper.
3. [For the Cake:] In a large bowl, whisk the pancake mix, both protein powders and cinnamon together until no clumps remain.
4. [For the Cake:] In a second bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, applesauce, eggs and egg white until smooth.
5. [For the Cake:] Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold gently until just combined. Stop as soon as the dry streaks disappear. Do not overmix - this is what keeps the cake tender.
6. [To Bake:] Pour half the batter into the prepared pan and spread it to the edges. Sprinkle half the streusel evenly over the top.
7. [To Bake:] Pour the remaining batter over the streusel layer and spread it gently to cover. Top with the remaining streusel.
8. [To Bake:] Bake 30-32 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean but with a few moist crumbs.
9. [To Bake:] Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing into 16 pieces.
