GLUTEN-FREE CAROB CAKE

Gluten-free Carob Cake image

Just made this cake on the fly because I was supposed to make pancakes but we went out for breakfast and I already had a bowl with some flours mixed together. It is the best gluten-free carob cake I have ever made. It's somewhere between super-moist awesome cake and banana bread. Serve with your fave ice cream or fruit. It can even be a sweet treat for breakfast if you wish. Hope you try it out.
