Notes

Notes: You can buy almond flour in most natural food stores (sometimes called almond meal).  Don’t expect this bread to puff up like regular banana bread – it stays dense and moist. You have to watch as almonds burn easily so if you see it browning on the top and its not yet cooked place some greaseproof paper over the cake.
