Moist muffin texture, chocolate, banana flavors, and crunchy almonds on top make this dessert so delicious. This cake would be perfect for those who love it simple, sweet, and sugar-free.

This Banana and Chocolate Muffin Cake recipe is made with whole-wheat flour. You may choose a gluten-free version, e.g., almond or oat flour (find more delicious gluten-free recipes here). If you are gluten intolerant, make sure to check the oat flour package for the gluten-free label. Since most oats are processed at the same facilities as wheat, they may contain some gluten.

It will make an excellent treat for any occasion: let it be a mid-week baking mood to treat yourself or a dessert for a host-at-home dinner with friends. Enjoy this delicious piece of muffin/cake with tea, coffee, or any other beverage of your choice. And beware: it’s very addictive! Bon appetit!
