List of Ingredients
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup flour, unbleached
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups bananas, very ripe, mashed
1/2 cup nonfat buttermilk
2 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Glaze:
1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons skim milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Recipe
Combine the flours, cocoa, sugar, baking soda, and salt, if desired, and stir to mix well. Add the banana, buttermilk, egg whites and vanilla extract. Stir to mix well. Coat a 9 x 13" pan with nonstick cooking spray. Spread the batter evenly in the pan. Bake at 350 deg F for about 35 min., or just until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake to room temp. To make the glaze, combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. If using a microwave oven, microwave the glaze, uncovered, at high power for 35 seconds, or until runny. If using a conventional stove top, transfer the glaze to a small saucepan and place over medium heat for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Drizzle the glaze over the cake, then sprinkle with chopped walnuts and let harden before cutting into squares and serving.
