banana cake

i took this to mothers group one day as it was nice to have a cake that wasn't a chocolaty sweet adults only cake. the babies could enjoy this too if they wanted without the sugar and the trans fats found most cakes.

Cake:
1/2 C coconut butter
substitute for 2 eggs (2 T chia seed blended with a bit of water or follow egg substitute package instructions)
3 ripe bananas, mashed
50 mls soy milk
1 1/2 C SR wholemeal flour (if you want you could use quinoa flour with some bicarb soda)
handful of blueberries (optional)
Icing:
macadamia butter - as much as you like (i use whole macadamias blended rather than a pre-made jar from the health food store but that is fine too)
pinch of ground cinnamon

preheat oven to 180deg C. grease and flour a cake tin. mix all cake ingredients with a fork or a blender, add blueberries at the end. pour into cake tin and bake for 20=25 mins. mix macadamia butter and cinnamon and spread on cooled cake.
