Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 8” round baking pan with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk flour, vanilla and unflavored protein powder, coconut flour, cinnamon and baking soda.
In a large bowl, whisk together hot water, applesauce, butter and lemon juice.
Add dry mix to wet, and gently fold until just combined.
DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cake dense.
Pour batter into pan, and bake for 22-25 minutes.
Don’t let the batter sit out.
A tester inserted into the center should come out clean but moist, and center of cake springy to touch.
Filling:
When cake is still hot, poke holes in cake(using rounded end of spoon) using about 1” apart.
In a bowl, whisk milk, protein powder and cocoa powder.
Pour pudding into holes (fill completely), and let cool completely.
Place in fridge about 4 hours.
Frosting/Topping:
In a bowl, combine yogurt, protein powder and cocoa powder.
Spread over base.
Combine sweetener and cinnamon in a bowl; Sprinkle on top of cake.
