We love birthday cake everything! When we were kids, we used to make the Pillsbury funfetti cake all the time, but we wanted to make a healthy funfetti birthday cake since it was Grace’s birthday earlier this month.
We love using Simple Mills cake mixes because they’re easy, and we know how great they taste and how great the ingredients are. Since we don’t bake too often, we love how simple and easy this was to make. To add a fun twist to this recipe, Jo decided to add some bananas to make it a healthy banana funfetti birthday cake!
