Gluten Free Banana and walnut traybake
This Banana and walnut traybake recipe is great for serving up for lunchbox treats.
This is my adapted version of a banana loaf recipe. I love banana loaf but often find it can be a little too moist in the middle. Baking it as a traybake ensures it is fully baked through.
If you love walnut cake or banana loaf you’ll love the combination of both these flavours in this traybake.
