Banana Almond Loaf cake(oven baking)

Banana Almond cake is the perfect Tea-time snack... I have tried some Cakes & posted already.. But, It is Utterly delicious because of its natural flavor of the fruit.. It is healthy food for kids... :) It has a good moist, almost gooey texture & intense banana flavor... Especially Crushed Almond adds special taste & I found myself  really loving this cake....

 I suggest, Light brown sugar to bake a loaf cake, because its suits the perfect taste to it than the white casting sugar... Ripe banana gives nice aroma & taste to it, just mashed it( do not cut the banana)..
