And God smiled down on her from heaven above and said, "My sometimes good and faithful servant! Let her eat cake!"

After four months without cake, I was finally able to partake. My whole married life--17 yrs--I've wanted a bundt cake pan. I never bought one because it was just too extravagent. Why do you need a bundt pan when you have regular cake pans? And muffin pans? Two weeks ago I found this pretty green one at my favorite resale shop; it appeared to be brand new. It was $1.
Because of the gluten-free sentence imposed upon me, I had only used it to defrost fruit for smoothies. Then the Happy Herbivore posted
this recipe and assured me by email that using my gluten-free all-purpose flour would work. It did!

And I ate cake. Of course I got horribly
ill (not stomach related) soon after and couldn't enjoy my cake fully. Of course. But everyone else in the house likes it (except for the boy who doesn't like choc cake); it's not going to waste.

It is a really good coffee cake. We eat it without a powdered sugar (because it contains cornstarch) dusting or a light glaze or frosting. Don't want anyone to get too spoiled. It contains two bananas, two cups of shredded zucchini and a cup of applesauce. The flavor changes subtly each day, and each day it is really good.

I find myself making more and more of the
Happy Herbivore's recipes. I don't know how she comes up with this stuff!
