Wheat Banana Cake
This cake is very healthy. Sounds clichéd? Wait until we give you the reasons. First, it is made of whole wheat flour. Second, it contains the goodness of bananas. Third, it contains honey instead of sugar. We think our recipe justifies and passes the parameters of being a so-called ‘healthy’ dish with flying colours. What’s more? It is a novel tiffin item and a perfect summer holiday snack for your kids.
