The other day I finally remembered to pick up some whole wheat pastry flour. With whole wheat pastry flour you can use it instead of a half Whole Wheat Flour and half All Purpose flour when you bake.
So needless to say I was excited to try it out. I decided on a new recipe I adapted from www.allrecipes.com. Now the specific recipe I have no clue…they have a bazillion banana cake recipes. I should have saved it to reference. In addition to using whole wheat pastry flour I also cut the sugar in half and replaced half with Splenda.
The final product..doesn’t it look yum! I iced with a peanut butter cream cheese icing.
My entire family devoured this cake not knowing it’s was somewhat good for them:)
