Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 cup Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups Mixed berries (fresh or frozen, thawed if frozen)
• 0.5 cup Raw walnuts (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan with a small amount of olive oil or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, combine the low-fat plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, olive oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Gently fold in the mixed berries, being careful not to mash them. Evenly distribute the berries throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

To make the crumb topping, in a small bowl, combine the chopped walnuts and honey. Sprinkle evenly over the cake batter.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Slice and serve the cake warm, or store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
