With the weather a bit changeable, I’m craving something comforting and reassuring again. I can hear the storm rumbling outside as I write the recipe… But mostly I have a good piece of this delicious cake next to me.
As you know, what I like most is to experiment in my studio. I suggest this cake that doesn’t look like it, but is deliciously moist and tasty. Made with banana, coconut and buckwheat flour, it is naturally gluten-free. I love buckwheat, and I’m definitely not kicking gluten out of my diet, but this gives those who are intolerant to it one more option. I enjoyed this cake! You can even have it lactose free, as I use coconut cream and almond and coconut powder. The only time I use it is in the butter for caramelizing the bananas and you can easily replace it with margarine. To do whatever your beliefs, because it is very very good!
