Rachel Allen’s recipe inspired Banana, Ginger and Maple Syrup Cake (Low FODMAP) is very tasty and moist. It reminds me of both banana bread and ginger cake (Polish “piernik”). Irish baker’s recipe has been adapted to be gluten free and Low FODMAP. We just need to remember that porridge oats are naturally gluten free and they are only contaminated with gluten during manufacturing process. Therefore, on a Low FODMAP diet, the usual, cheap porridge oats are fine, unless you are coeliac, then you need to get the expensive, branded “gluten free” ones.
- gluten free
- super tasty and moist cake
- great with a cuppa

40 g gluten free self-raising flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
2 flat tbsp. ground ginger
2 unripe bananas – you can keep a little bit for decorating the top of the cake.

INSTRUCTIONS TO PREPARE BANANA, GINGER AND MAPLE SYRUP CAKE:
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/ 160 degrees C fan. Line the bread tin with baking paper.
Beat the soft butter with the sugar until light and fluffy, then add the maple syrup and beat again. You can use a whisk or a hand mixer.
Add the eggs, one at a time and whisk with the buttery mix.
Add the gluten free self raising flour, the oat flour, baking powder, soda, kanthan gum and ginger and mix well.
In the end add mashed bananas to the bowl with the rest of ingredients and whisk for the last time.
