AIP: Banana Bread
Cake. Yes, it is possible to be on AIP and eat your cake too.
Being a lover of baking cakes, making the decision to try the Autoimmune Protocol left me feeling deprived and depressed. Was I ever going to eat cake again? Or more to the point, was I ever going to grease a pan, whip up a batter and bake a cake again?
The answer is yes, and I have the discovery of The Healing Family Eats blog to thank for "healing a hole" in my sole. Alright, a little dramatic, but you get the drift.
Case in point. Her Banana Cinnamon Teacake. Now, unfortunately in Australia, it's not so easy to pick up palm shortening, let alone a good quality organic variety, so I had to adapt. My version of Kate's cake is a little more crumbly that she describes, but I loved it, crumbs and all, and so have non-AIPers.
Just goes to show, use quality ingredients and bake with love, you can't go wrong!
