MY. This banana cake is devine. I had 3 manky bananas in the fridge and went searching for new recipes (very over banana bread). Replaced 50g of the almonds (and used almond meal) with shredded coconut. Lovely. Any suggestions on how to use up shredded coconut?! I'm ashamed to say I had this with a latte for breakfast this morning. Mind you, I figure it has no butter, so much better than the nasty things we get in most cafes. Thank you :) OH. MY.

I'm planning on making the almond & banana cake this afternoon - another gluten free sweet thing to add to the repertoire.

Y,

I don't know if you've ever read Jeffrey Steingarten's, The Man Who Ate Everything, but his introduction to the book is the story of his quest to rid himself of his food phobias -- kimchi, dill, swordfish, Greek food, etc. -- when he was hired as a food critic. He's fairly successful, and his success is due to a regimen he devises based on the science of food aversions. It's fascinating and entertaining, and Steingarten is a glorious writer. That's my rather longwinded way of saying your post reminds me of that article, and I hope you get a chance to read his books. That said, I'm definitely a banana fan (and an even bigger fan of figs and vanilla, thank you), and these dishes look wonderful. I will have to try both the ice cream and the smoothie when this cold, Canadian winter is a thing of the past. On a separate note, you have a fascinating personal story and an equally charming blog. Consider me your newest fan. Jules, I applaud your attempts to overcome your food fears.
