Instructions
Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease three 4-inch cake or springform pans with coconut oil.
- Place coconut flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl. Stir or whisk to combine.
- Place the peanut butter, yogurt, eggs, and coconut oil in a large bowl. Stir until well-combined and smooth. Peel and mash the banana and add to the wet mixture and combine well.
- Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir well to form the batter. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool completely before removing them from the pans.

- Spread the frosting on the top of each layer. Stack the layers. Sprinkle reserved coconut flakes on top.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
Do not use peanut butter that contains xylitol, an artificial sweetener toxic to dogs.
