I made a rather good cake which I believe should be quite nutrient dense: a good step up on a conventional cake in any case. Almost suitable for Paleos, completely suitable for gluten free people and a good choice for diabetics. Here you go 🙂
Flourless Chocolate Banana Cake a la Dalia
Ingredients:
4 very ripe mashed bananas
4 eggs
1/2 cup of nut butter (I used natural peanut butter)
4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup of ground almonds
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of natural vanilla extract
2 tablespoons of dark chocolate chips
2 tablespoons of cocoa
1/4 cup of natural maple syrup
Method:
- Preheat oven to 170 C.
- Mix the wet ingredients together (bananas, nut butter, oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract and eggs). Mix till smooth.
- Mix dry ingredients together (ground almonds, cocoa, baking soda and powder). Mix well.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Mix well.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Add mixture to already oiled pan.
- Bake till a thingy stuck in the middle comes out clean.
Did I say mix well? 🙂
Enjoy! Happy week ahead everyone!
