Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for this Gluten and Dairy Free Hummingbird Traybake. I've had this recipe lingering around for ages and finally got round to finishing it a few weeks ago. Last minute I decided to switch it to a traybake rather than a traditional layer cake just for a little change.
