Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 1 large Egg Can substitute with a flax egg for a vegan option.

  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Adjust based on your taste preference.
  • 1 tablespoon Melted Unsalted Butter Can substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsweetened Almond Milk Keeps the batter moist.
For the Swirl
