Ingredient Notes
- Almond flour: To incorporate more nutrients, we use almond flour rather than all-purpose. Use super-fine blanched almond flour for best results.
- Cinnamon and vanilla: To add flavour and sweetness to the smash cake.
- Baking soda and salt: So that the cake rises in the oven when it’s baked for a light and fluffy texture.
- Bananas: Use overripe bananas for this recipe. They will be easier to combine with the other ingredients and will be naturally sweeter compared to unripe ones.
- Eggs: Used to bind the ingredients together and incorporate protein into the recipe.
- Applesauce: Used to naturally sweeten the cake and add moisture.
How To Make a Smash Cake for 1 Year Old: Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray two 6-inch round cake pans (I used a springform pan) with non-stick cooking spray. Line the bottom of the pans with a piece of parchment paper cut so that they they fit the bottom of the pans.
- In a large bowl, mix together almond flour, cinnamon and baking soda (and salt, if using).
- In a separate bowl, mix together the mashed bananas, eggs, applesauce and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined (do not over mix).
- Divide mixture evenly between the two baking pans.
- Bake in oven for 25 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow cake to cool before removing from the cake pan.
- Meanwhile, prepare frosting of choice. We chose to to frost the cake with homemade unsweetened whipped cream. Using a knife, spread a thin layer of frosting on the bottom layer of the cake. Place the top layer on and continue to apply frosting until the entire cake is covered. Decorate the small frosted cake with desired toppings.

Tips for the Best Smash Cake Recipe
- Use overripe bananas (the brown spotty kind) which will be naturally sweeter. It’s best if the bananas are as sweet as possible since there is no added sugar in this recipe.
- I highly recommend that you line the bottom of the cake pan with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking to the bottom of the pan and for easier removal.
- For this recipe, we whipped some 35% heavy cream using an electric mixer and used that as the icing for the cake for our baby’s first birthday. We spread the whipped cream in between the two layers, on the top and sides, but you can also just spread some over the top. If you prefer, you can add some icing sugar to the whipped cream, use coconut whipped cream or make a Greek yogurt or cream cheese icing as well.
Recipe FAQs
A smash cake is basically a small birthday cake that’s served on baby’s first birthday. As we know, one year olds can be pretty messy when it comes to meal times, so this cake is specifically designed for them to eat, smoosh and play with. It also works well for those cute cake smashing photo shoots!
The flavour that you decide upon for baby’s cake is totally a personal preference, but we went with banana flavour since it’s a great way to sweeten the cake naturally without using any added sugar. Plus, most babies love bananas so it’s tough to go wrong with a banana cake that tastes like banana bread!
Smash cakes are traditionally made for 1st birthdays, but there’s no reason why you can’t make it for a 2nd or 3rd birthday (or another occasion) if you like. They are great for those special photos!
I used two 6-inch cake pans and found they worked perfectly for this cake. I haven’t tried making this cake in another size cake pan, so if you plan to use another size, you may need to adjust the baking time depending on the size of the pan. If you’d like a taller or larger cake, simply double the recipe and add two extra layers or use larger cake pans.
I haven’t personally tested this cake with all-purpose flour, but some readers have had success subbing it 1:1 for the almond flour. If you try it out, let me know in the comments below!
Storage Guidelines
Refrigerator: You can store this banana smash cake covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Beyond that, I recommend storing it in the freezer.
Freezer: Freeze the unfrosted cake layers in a freezer safe bag or container for up to three months. Place in the fridge overnight or at room temperature for several hours to thaw before frosting and serving.
Ideas for Serving Baby’s Cake
We spread homemade whipped cream with no added sugar as the icing on our smash cake recipe to keep the sugar content lower. If you’re extra fancy, you could also use a piping bag to pipe a design around the edges. We finished the cake by topping it with some fresh mixed berries.
You can also top it with any or a few of the following:
- Coconut whipped cream
- Greek yogurt
- Homemade cream cheese frosting (try this peanut butter cream cheese frosting)
- Chocolate frosting without powdered sugar
- Chocolate sweet potato frosting
- Nutella or other nut butter
- Vanilla buttercream
- Flaked coconut
- Banana slices (or other fresh fruit)
- Sprinkles
- Shaved chocolate or mini chocolate chips
Tip: Try blending up freeze-dried fruit like raspberries, strawberries or blueberries into a powder and mixing it in with cream cheese, Greek yogurt, coconut cream or whipped cream. It will add extra flavour and colour! Alternatively, you can add in vanilla extract, a little maple syrup, or date paste for some added sweetness.
Other Smash Cake Flavour Variations
- Chocolate: Add cocoa powder and chocolate chips for a banana chocolate cake.
- Blueberry: Add blueberries to the cake mix for blueberry banana cake.
- Coconut: Add unsweetened coconut flakes for banana coconut cake.
What Readers Are Saying
“I made this exactly as the recipe recommends for my baby’s 1st birthday. It came out great!! I made cupcakes and stacked two on top of each other + cream cheese frosting to make a mini “cake” for her. Then I stored the remaining ones and she ate the leftover cupcakes for breakfast! Great recipe, really flavorful and good texture.” – Vanessa
This turned out great. I made it for my niece’s first birthday and even grownups couldn’t stop eating them (made mini-muffins). – Alexa
“Loved it! Made these in a cupcake tin. I put a little bit of grease in the tin and put the dough straight in it, because the cupcakes would stick to the paper cupcake holders. Great recipe and the kids loved them! They make good breakfast snacks, also!” – Priscilla

Notes
- Use super-fine blanched almond flour. If your almond flour is too coarse, use a food processor to grind it to a finer texture and sift it through a mesh strainer. This is important in order to achieve the right texture.
- Use overripe bananas (the brown spotty kind) which will be naturally sweeter. It’s best if the bananas are as sweet as possible since there is no added sugar in this recipe.
- I highly recommend that you line the bottom of the cake pan with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking to the bottom of the pan and for easier removal.
- For this recipe, we whipped some 35% heavy cream and used that as the icing for the cake for our baby’s first birthday. We spread the whipped cream in between the two layers, on the top and sides, but you can also just spread some over the top. If you prefer you can add some icing sugar to the whipped cream, use coconut whipped cream or make a yogurt or cream cheese icing.

If making the chocolate flavor variation how much cacao powder would you add into the mix?
I would maybe start with about 1/4 cup cacao powder and increase the amount if you like it really chocolatey. I haven’t personally tested this cake with the cacao powder so keep me posted if you try it out!
Hi, I have 7in springforms. How would I go about making this? I am a newbie when it comes to baking. Ie, when you say double – I’m not sure if you literally mean double every single ingredient, bananas, eggs, applesauce everything? And would I double the time as well?
I made mine in 2 six inch cake pans, so I’m not sure if you’d need to necessarily double the ingredients unless you plan to make a taller 4-layer cake. If you stick with the ingredients as listed, the cakes might be slightly thinner since they’ll be baked over a slightly larger surface area. You may want to check the cakes at around 15-20 minutes. If they’re not done yet, continue baking for a few more minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Hope that helps!
When you refrigerate this cake do you do it with the whipped cream on it or add it after? I am wanting to make the cake the day before the party and not have to do anything to it the day of the party aside from serve it.
Also how long before serving should I remove the cake from the fridge if it is already decorated?
Although you can refrigerate the cake with the whipped cream, I would recommend that you put the whipped cream on after you refrigerate it since it can sometimes dry out in the fridge. You can make up a batch of whipped cream ahead of time and then quickly blend it again before you’re ready to frost the cake to help it get nice and fluffy again. I would take the cake out 1-2 hours before you’re ready to serve to allow it to soften up. Hope that helps!
Wondering if you can use oat flour instead of almond flour for this recipe? Has anyone tried this?
I haven’t personally tried this recipe with oat flour, but it may work if you substitute it for the almond flour. However, it does have a closer consistency to wheat flour so you may need to adjust the eggs or other binding ingredients. Keep me posted if you decide to try it out!
Hi! Super excited to bake this for my daughter’s first birthday this week but as cupcakes instead. Any tips please? Thanks in advance :)
I haven’t personally tried baking them as cupcakes, but I know that other readers have with success! Personally, I would use silicone muffin liners if you have them since almond flour baked goods do have more of a tendency to stick. Also, I would reduce the baking time slightly since they’ll be smaller than the 6 inch cake, and be sure to watch them very carefully to prevent them from overcooking/burning. Keep me posted on how it goes!
This made a great smash cake for my daughter’s first birthday! It was super moist and crumbly, which she loved. I followed the recipe as written, except I added frozen blueberries to the batter, as her party was blueberry-themed. I used yogurt mixed with maple syrup as the frosting.
So glad your daughter loved this cake for her first birthday! Love how you incorporated blueberries to match the blueberry theme. I bet that was super cute! The maple yogurt frosting sounds delicious too :)
can I use all purpose flour instead?
Other readers have tried it and reported back that the cake turned out very dense with all-purpose flour. One commenter did mention that she mixed all purpose flour and almond flour (I’m assuming equal parts?) and then added 1/3 cup of milk to the batter and had good results. I haven’t personally tried this cake using all-purpose flour so some adjustments would probably need to be made to the recipe if you choose to go that route. Hope that helps!
I mixed all-purpose flour and almond flour, the mixture seems too thick. So I added 1/3 cup of milk. It turned out perfect! My baby loved it:)
Thank you so much for the recipe!!
Oh I’m so glad that you were able to adapt the recipe to suit your needs…and that your baby loved it as well! Good to know that some extra milk did the trick with the addition of the all purpose flour!
I made the recipe exactly as called for but substituted the almond flour for all purpose flour and made cupcakes. They tasted good but they did turn out quite thick and dense, definitely not like a typical cake. My 1 year old would never be able to smash or eat something that dense. Perhaps adding 1/4 cup sourcream maybe would make the difference? My husband loved them.
Unfortunately, all purpose flour doesn’t always work out well if you substitute it 1:1 for almond flour, which is probably why it turned out dense. I haven’t had a chance to test this recipe with regular flour, so I’m not 100% sure what modifications would need to be made. For best results, stick with the almond flour as stated in the recipe. Glad your husband enjoyed them!
the fact that this is a simple recipe and only involved a few ingredients is what attracted me. Also, that it is healthy!
But the almond flour us huat no good at all. maybe there are different grinds, bought mine at Aldis and the result was a coarse style cake that just wasnt very sweet or tasty at all.
the coconut whipped cream and fresh berries saved it.
but at least it was healthy!
There are different types of almond flour and for this recipe, I used super fine blanched almond flour. I’m wondering if you maybe purchased a coarse almond flour or almond meal, which is why you ended up with a coarse cake? I updated the recipe to state that super fine almond flour is required. Hope it turns out better for you if you try it with different almond flour next time!
I made this this evening as a test run for our best friends baby’s 1st birthday and it came out like a brick. I doubled the recipe so that may have played a factor in it but are banana based cakes always this dense? I made a banana bread style cake a few years ago for my sons birthday and it was totally opposite, it was much lighter. I do think I slightly over mixed but following the recipe exactly did not work out for me.
If you doubled the cake ingredients, did you separate each batch into different bowls when mixing the ingredients? Unfortunately, if you doubled the recipe and mixed both batches together in one bowl, then the ingredients might not have been evenly distributed which is why you might have ended up with such a dense and heavy cake. Almond flour cakes do tend to have a more dense consistency, but mine definitely didn’t come out like a brick. It’s hard to know what might have gone wrong without seeing exactly how you made the cake.
I just made this (with a different Healthy Buttercream Frosting) for my son’s 1st birthday. He didn’t do a lot of smashing, but otherwise, the cake came out great. Even my husband liked it (he’s very particular on cakes) and my mother-in-law asked for the recipe.
That’s amazing! I’m so happy to hear that it was a hit with everyone (husband included). I bet it tasted delicious with the healthy buttercream frosting too. Thanks so much for taking the time to share some feedback :)
What healthy buttercream recipe did you use? Would love to try this for my twins bday this weekend! The cake was a hit with cream cheese for their photoshoot last week but wanting to do a different icing for their party.
please could I have the receipe in UK measurements, either pounds or grams. would love to make this but when looking for cup to grams, I’m getting different weights. thank you
Hi Anna, I apologize for the delayed response! I measured out the ingredients and got the following weights in grams:
2 cups (261 grams) almond flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 large (184 grams each) over ripe bananas
3 large eggs (56 grams each) beaten
1/4 cup (65 grams) unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Hope this helps!
thank you so much. Will be baking this next week so will post out come then.
Turned out lovely, Customer was so happy with it. wish I could send you a photo
I’m so happy to hear that it turned out well and that your customer loved the cake too! I’d love to see your photos!! You can send any photos that you took to [email protected]. Thanks so much for reporting back :)
I made this for my baby’s first birthday and she loved it (so did we!) I ground up freeze dried strawberries and mixed with cream cheese for the frosting. I topped with raspberries. I only had 8″ cake pans so I doubled the recipe and ended up with two 8″ rounds and 4 cupcakes (I didn’t want to overload the cake pans and mess up the recipe, which is why I made a few cupcakes as well). Thanks for a great recipe! This is the best smash cake recipe we have tried in our family!
That’s amazing!! I’m so happy that everyone enjoyed the cake! I love how you made the frosting and modified the recipe based on the cake pans you had. Great thinking! Thanks so much for sharing your feedback and modifications!
Would I be able to use all purpose flour for this recipe?
I haven’t personally tried it with all purpose flour so I can’t comment on the outcome, but some other readers have had success using it instead of the almond flour. Keep me posted on how it goes if you try it out!
Hello, can I leave out the eggs? What do I substitute them with? She’s allergic to eggs :(
Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to test this recipe with an egg substitute so I’m not entirely sure if it would work out. You could try using chia or flax eggs instead of the regular eggs if you wanted to experiment, but once again, I can’t guarantee that it would turn out. To make 3 chia eggs, you would need to mix 3 tablespoons of chia seeds with 9 tablespoons of water. Leave the mixture to rest for 5-10 minutes or until it thickens and resembles raw egg. Then proceed with the rest of the recipe. Keep me posted if you decide to test it out!
Mine didnt rise properly it’s very small
Cakes made with almond flour don’t tend to rise the same way that cakes made with regular all purpose flour would rise since there is no gluten present. If you want the cake to rise more, you could try adding a bit of xanthan gum to the recipe. I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet with this recipe, but hope to experiment with it soon. This cake is also smaller than your traditional cake since it’s made in a 6-inch pan. If you want a taller cake, you can always double the recipe and make it 4 layers instead of 2. Hope that helps!
Hi, i made this cake today in 2 5inch by 2 pans and I followed the recipe step by step but once cooling the center of my cake fell in then when I proceeded to cut into layers it was still doughy. Is there a step I missed or what caused this to happen? Thank you
It’s hard to know exactly what may have gone wrong without being there to see each step, but it sounds like the cake may have been undercooked? Since you used slightly smaller cake pans, the cakes were probably a bit thicker and therefore may have required some extra cooking time. The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps your oven runs hot and the outside of the cake cooked faster than the inside of the cake. In that case, I would reduce your oven temperature slightly next time and bake it a bit longer than the recommended time. Hope that helps!
Hi there! Making this for my daughter’s first birthday party and doubling to make 4 tiers. About how much heavy cream would you suggest for whipping for the icing? Thanks!
I think I used about 1 cup of heavy whipping cream for the 2 tiered cake so I would try about 2 cups cream for the 4 tiered? I apologize — that’s just a rough estimate. I should have recorded the exact amount I used. If you have some left over, you can always serve it on the side or dip some fruit into it. Keep me posted on how it turns out and hope your baby enjoys the cake!
Thank you so much! We ended up sticking with the 2 tier and 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. It was perfect, and my daughter loved it!
That’s amazing, thanks so much for reporting back! So happy your daughter loved the cake :)
Hi! I’m gonna try this for my daughter’s first and want to try making the homemade cream too :) I’m wondering if I can make this cake and frosting the day before… do you know how well the cream holds? If I make it the day before, will it melt? Or if I keep it in the fridge, do you think it would be fine?
I’ve made the whipped cream in advance before and it tends to solidify in the fridge a bit and lose some of its creamy texture. You should be able to whip up a batch ahead of time, but right before you’re about to spread it on, I recommend leaving it at room temperature for a few minutes and then whipping it up again with a hand mixer (or stand mixer) to get it fluffy again. The cake can definitely be made the day before. Hope your daughter enjoys the cake!
Hi! I love your recipe and will definitely make it for my daughter 1st birthday. I would like to make enough batter to fill 3 cake pan instead of 2. What changes would you suggest?
Hi Julia, sorry for the delay! I would recommend multiplying each of the ingredient quantities by 1.5 and then evenly dividing the batter between the 3 cake pans. The cooking time should remain roughly the same, although I would check it after the recommended cooking time is up to see if all of the cakes have cooked through. Hope your baby enjoys the cake! :)
Hi, is it possible to sub in coconut flour? I suspect my baby might have a mild but allergy. She reacted to cashew but I don’t think I want to try almond for her birthday.
Unfortunately, coconut flour cannot be used as a direct replacement for almond flour since it’s highly absorbent and typically requires more liquid. I haven’t tested this recipe with coconut flour, so I’m not able to provide any exact proportions. Sorry about that! If you do decide to modify the recipe and make it with coconut flour, please keep me posted on the outcome. Hope your baby has a great birthday!
I Trippled the recipe and got a double layer 6 inch cake and 18 cupcakes for a baby boy done recipe exactly as said and used plain heavy whipping cream for icing turned out very cute 😊
I love this idea!! That’s so smart tripling the recipe to make cupcakes to go along with the cake! So happy it turned out well for you :)
Would this recipe work for 4″ round pans? Not sure if I need to alter ingredients or baking times in any way?
I haven’t tried this recipe with 4″ pans but I’m sure it would work. If you’re using two 4″ pans, I would keep the ingredients the same, but possibly adapt the cooking time. I would start with the cooking time listed and then check the cakes after that time is up. You may need to cook them a bit longer since the cakes would smaller, but thicker. Keep me posted if you try it out!
HI Stephanie I also want to use 4″ pans – did you alter the cooking time?
Can you add mini chocolate chips to this recipe?? Thank you
Definitely! I’m sure it would be really good! Let me know how it goes if you try it out :)
Thank you for this great recipe! Made it with homemade whipping cream as you suggested with fresh raspberries on top for my son’s first birthday. He loved it!! I also have tried your blueberry muffin recipe and my son loves that one too! (As well as me and my husband too :) ) Can’t wait to try more of your recipes out!
It’s my pleasure! I’m so happy that your baby loved the cake and that you’ve all been enjoying the blueberry muffins too! My baby always does a happy dance when he eats those muffins haha. Thanks so much for providing feedback on the recipes :)
Can I use pears sauce instead of apples? I’m so excited to try this recipe, my little one turns one soon and I want to make him a delicious smash cake and I love all the ingredients in this recipe. Thank you for sharing this.
I haven’t personally tried it, but I think pear sauce would work just fine! Hope your little one enjoys the cake if you guys decide to try it out! It was definitely a hit with my little guys :)
Can you use all purpose flour?
Generally all purpose flour can be used as a 1:1 substitute for almond flour, but I haven’t tested it so I can’t guarantee that it would work out. Almond flour typically requires more eggs to bind the flour, so you may want to eliminate an egg if you try the all purpose flour. Please keep me posted if you try it out!
Hello! Curious to see if you/anybody else has tried this recipe using all-purpose flour? If so, would love to know how it went!
Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to test this cake out with all-purpose flour. Sorry! If you do try it out, I would recommend possibly eliminating an egg since almond flour typically requires more eggs to bind the flour. Keep me posted if you try it out with the regular flour!
Do you think this would work using Gluten Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour? I have that on hand. Excited to try this!
Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to try this recipe out with gluten-free flour so I can’t say 100% if it would work out. Typically almond flour can’t be replaced 1:1 with gluten-free or wheat flour without making some modifications to the recipe. If you do try it out, you may need to increase the amount of gluten-flour. 1 cup flour is equivalent to about 3/4 cup almond flour. Also with the gluten-free flour, you may need to increase the cooking time. Hope that helps if you decide to try it out!
Hello! Just wondering if you or anybody else has tested the recipe using all purpose flour? Please let me know how it went and if you made any changes! Excited to try out this recipe for my LO turning 1 soon!
I tried this recipe using all purpose flour and reduced to two eggs as recommended – it turned out VERY dense. I didn’t remake it with three eggs because it was still edible and I didn’t think my baby would mind, but I would suggest attempting it with the original three eggs and not reducing. Outside of the density the flavor of the cake was great!
Thanks so much for the recommendation! I haven’t personally tried making this cake with all purpose flour so it’s good to know that 3 eggs would probably work better than 2. Glad you enjoyed the flavour!
We served this cake to our baby for his first birthday and he loved it!! It was so much fun watching him stuff it into his mouth! I love how there’s no added sugar…and it was so easy to make too. Thanks so much for the great recipe!
Yay!! I’m so happy your baby enjoyed the cake! It’s always fun watching them take that first bite (or mouthful) :) Thanks so much for returning to leave a rating and review!
