The ingredients for Sweet Banana Polenta Cake are:

1 1/4 cups Pamela's Ultimate Baking Mix *or your own self-rising gluten free flour mix - see Cook's Notes
1 cup polenta cornmeal
1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoons sea salt
3 large free-range organic eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup light vegetable or extra light olive oil
1 3/4 cups packed organic light brown sugar
3 very ripe bananas, mashed into puree
1/3 cup milk, coconut milk, or other non-dairy milk
2 teaspoons good vanilla extract

Here is how you make Sweet Banana Polenta Cake:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 10 x 13" baking pan by lining it with greased foil or parchment.In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Pamela's Baking Mix, cornmeal, baking powder and sea salt. Set aside.In a larger mixing bowl beat the eggs. Add the oil and beat to combine. Add the sugar and beat till smooth. Add in the banana puree, milk and vanilla; do the same.Add the dry ingredients into the wet, and beat to combine. I did all this by hand and it worked out beautifully.Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake in the center of a preheated oven for 33 minutes, or until done. Check the center for doneness with a wooden pick. The cake should appear slightly golden brown at the edge, firm to a light touch. Cool the cake completely on a wire rack- if you can resist. I couldn't, and ate a piece while it was still warm. It was fabulous with a mug of hot tea.When the cake is cool, cut and slice into squares for wrapping and freezing, if you wish.Makes 12 to 15 squares.Number of Servings: 15Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CALOUSTE.
