I find the best results come from grinding sliced almonds in a coffee grinder. It grinds them very finely, making better textured baked goods.

If anyone from Vancouver shops at Urban Fare, check out the walnut and pistachio flour in the baking section. It's about $60.00 a pound. I'm not a frequent shopper there and have been noting it since last October. Everytime I see it and its ludicrous price tag, I laugh my head off. Why, it must be RANCID by now!

I am not going anywhere near that banana bread recipe. Banana bread is a total trigger binge non-food for me.
