Ingredients
  

Banana Cake
  • 2 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 large ripe banana mashed (about 1/2 cup mashed)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • splash vanilla
Cream Cheese Frosting:
  • 8 oz blocks Neufchatel or reduced fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp butter softened
  • 2 tbsp almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 and grease bundt pan. If using another pan, you will need to adjust baking time. A regular bread pan will require longer baking. Use toothpick test to see when finished.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, mash banana. Whisk in two eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla.
  4. Add dry ingredients to wet and stir until combined. Pour into greased bundt pan and bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean.
  5. While baking, prepare cream cheese frosting. Using a hand mixer, blend together cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until creamy. Chill in fridge for 30 minutes.
  6. Frost cake once it has fully cooled.
