Banana Carrot Cake

• 1/4 pound butter, chopped [or ghee]
• 1 cup sugar [or brown sugar, maple sugar, agave syrup]
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 medium carrot, coarsely grated
• 2 over ripe bananas, mashed
• 1-1/2 cups rice flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon allspice [B and AB substitute nutmeg]
• 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum [Best to omit; see Note below]
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder [Baking Powder Recipe Variations]
  
  [Note: Xanthan gum is not listed in Typebase, but is assumed to be a universal avoid, like other vegetable gums tested so far.]

• Cream butter and sugar in mixer.
• Add egg beat until combined.
• Add carrot and banana.
• Add sifted dry ingredients and nuts, stirring until combined.
• Spread into prepared 8 inch pan or ring pan.
• Cook in a moderate oven 180 degrees Celsius [350 degrees Fahrenheit] for about 1 hour or until a skewer comes out clean.

  Or:
  
  
• Melt butter and work into the rest of the ingredients.
• Put into a large microwave ring pan and cook for about 6-1/2 minutes in a 900 Watt microwave oven.
• Leave in pan as above.
  
  
• Turn out and ice when cold.
• I use a plain butter icing, or you can sprinkle it with sugar.
• It is delicious.
