Gluten Free Banana Flour Chocolate Hazelnut Cake

I generally don’t venture too much into gluten free baking. My forté is vegan baking, and I tend to stick to it.

But recently I scored some highly nutritious allergy friendly flours from Banamin Health Care and I wanted to see if I could come up with a completely GF cake with the Green Banana Flour. I was totally surprised by the results!

 

 

The texture is on the crumbly side and also more fudgy than cakey. But overall a very yummy thing.
