I loved this. Thanks for sharing! I had forgotten about your website-I need to check this more often. :)
Wonderful. I found you through one blog, through another blog, etc., etc.
Non-GF family say 'file this under the "TO KEEP" heading'. Best compliment ever.
Can't wait until zucchini season next year. I think I could use this same recipe with a light lemon/lime cream cheese icing with the zucchini in place of banana. What do you think?
My husband and I love the banana cake recipe. One question: since bananas vary quite a bit in size, how many cups of bananas do you put in your batter?
