Cinnamon Toast Cake - Gluten Free - Barefeet in the Kitchen



Cake Ingredients:
2 cups GF flour mix (OR 1 cup brown rice flour, plus 1 cup tapioca starch/flour)
1/2 teaspoon xantham gum
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter, melted and semi-cooled

Topping Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9" square pan (8" works as well) and set aside. Whisk together the dry ingredients for the cake. Blend in the milk, vanilla and butter. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 25 minutes (27 minutes for 8" pan).

While the cake is baking, combine the topping ingredients and whisk together. Remove the cake from the oven after 25 minutes and pour the topping across the cake. I like to pour the topping mostly around the sides first and then lightly across the top. I've found that if I pour it all on the center of the cake immediately, that will cause the cake to fall slightly. Still delicious that way, but not as pretty.

Bake the cake for an additional 10 minutes until the cinnamon layer is bubbling. Let cool before serving. Enjoy!
