NOTES : [This is an adaptation of a recipe for peach almond cake, changed
so it could be served to a friend with allergies to tree nuts and fruits.
It tasted better than the peach almond version]. 1.The recipe listed
all-purpose flour, but I used whole wheat flour. 2. The recipe calls for
plain yogurt, but I always use Biobest 1% fat active-culture yogurt (made
by Astro), so I have entered the ingredients in this manner to determine
the nutritional content.
