Expert Tips

Cake flour has less protein than all-purpose flour. Because protein gives cake structure, cakes made with cake flour have a softer, lighter texture when compared to those made with all-purpose flour.

doesn't take too long in preparation and cooking. Great taste of the final product. Don't let your over ripe bananas go to waste. Make this cake. I used whole wheat flour and oats (equal amounts) and brown sugar. A very healthy cake. Everybody loved it.
