      This is such a perfect recipe! I have some family members that don’t eat gluten or refined sugar and it’s really tough to find a sweet or dessert-y recipe that everyone can enjoy. This is now our go-to recipe for a sweet option at family brunch. The texture is perfect, not dry or crumbly like is common in gluten-free baking. I can’t say enough, just bake it!
