I loved coming home to the aroma of Mom's amazingly aromatic and tasty banana cake. As I got older and of course more reasonable with desserts...I knew something had to change! I did realize that this classic had to somehow be turned around or else my body would make me regret it! Hence, with some patient tweaking, I've finally found the right balance between flavour and nutrition.
