This Gluten-Free Low Carb Banana & Strawberry Cake is made with simple, whole-food ingredients that offer both flavor and functional benefits. Naturally sweetened with ripe bananas and topped with antioxidant-rich strawberries, it supports stable energy and digestion without relying on refined flours or added sugars.
Almond and buckwheat flours provide a nutrient-dense, gluten-free base—rich in fiber, healthy fats, and minerals like magnesium and zinc. Bananas contribute potassium and prebiotic fiber to support gut health, while strawberries offer vitamin C and polyphenols that promote skin, metabolic, and immune function.
Whether you’re supporting blood sugar balance, minimizing gluten, or simply looking for nourishing options made from real ingredients, this recipe offers a practical, food-as-medicine approach to everyday baking.
