Healthy pecan, banana, tahini cake with nutella, no artificial sugar added

The idea was to experiment on banana bread. Which I did and actually that cake turned out very good too, but will check that out later. Now, that last banana in the fridge… I kept the whole bunch in the fridge – don’t ask why- for quite some time, so, throwing away that last brown mushy banana, didn’t feel right for some odd reason. To be honest, I just messed around with all I had in the kitchen and ended up with this rather interesting, sugar-and guilt-free cake, that successfully passed the test. Enjoy.
