Upside Down Banana Cake
An Overview of Making Upside Down Banana Cake
Making this cake was quite lengthy. I did it from scratch. I have the satisfaction that most of the ingredients used here are gluten-free and healthy. I powdered brown rice to get the flour. I don't know whether you get brown rice flour in the market. You can use it if it is available. Almond powder, flaxseed powder, and almond milk all I did at home.
This cake is very delicious and healthy. You can have it as an in-between meal, evening snack, or after school snack.
