I substitute Gluten Free flour in this recipe and it is delicious. I also bake this in a silicone pan that has four rectangular pans (like small bread pans). Turns out great. My favorite. This year I poured a bit of rum over the tops, stored them upside down to soften the tops because I let them cool in oven. (big mistake I think) Will find out in 2 weeks if it makes much difference.

By far the best ever!!! My favorite. To make gluten free substitute GF flour, I also used Oat Flour.
