Notes

The nutrition estimate is from Spoonacular, which is based mainly on the USDA database.
Soy milk was used for this estimate and recipe testing.
To measure the flours, add them loosely to each measuring cup with a spoon. Then level off the top of the cups with a knife. Packing the cups with too much flour may result in too much flour in the batter. You can also measure these with a scale.
A frozen banana works very well in this recipe. Just defrost it first (about a minute in the microwave).
