Banana Almond Cake

Submitted by Rowenna

"I was experimenting in the kitchen. It came out surprisingly good. I'll bet the same concept can be applied to pureed pumpkin or pureed butternut squash; maybe apple sauce. For the squash, I would add sugar or splenda, because they're not naturally as sweet as banana."
