Tips:
1. To make this recipe low in natural food chemicals;
Swap the banana for tinned pears in syrup or poach 4 pears until soft and mash.
Replace lemon juice and lemon rind in icing for 1 tsp of citric acid or serve without icing.
2. Once cooled these store really well in the freezer in either a zip lock bag or airtight container, just leave the icing off.
3. If you are wanting a simpler version of this, you can replace the baking soda, rice milk, baking powder and plain flour with gluten free self-raising flour.
