Your tasty recipes have been so very useful in this endeavour and I am planning on trying this one out soon! Just one little question: I am generally on a gluten-free + sugar-free diet (though I can consume both in small quantities and not be bothered), and I know that the chemistry of baking can totally change even with one little substitution. Is there some other form of sweetener I could use other than sugar? OR leave it out all together if the bananas are really ripe? Thanks in advance! Hi Jules,

I changed the bananas to canned pumpkin-pie filling (100% pumpkin with a lot of moisture removed) and it worked out great! Thanks for posting this, I thought I'd never get to eat cake again!

I always keep a few jars of baby food in he cupboard. Even a packet chocolate cake tastes richer with apple sauce and a little less water/milk. If you don’t have bananas you can use apple sauce.

This Thanksgiving was possible because of the increased number of those living with allergies/intolerances, and some lovely vegan friends. the cake looks wonderful! definitely bookmarking it. and btw, I've always loved your blog. my baby has recently shown signs of an allergy/intolerance as well, I’m so new to the whole world of allergy cooking and agree, baking and desserts are the hardest part.

I think the best gluten free vegan chocolate baking I have come across is a brownie recipe which can use pumpkin or bananas – and can be nut free in case you are catering for those allergies too
