Description

Every time our beloved Pdub posts a mouth-watering baked delight, I go into my “Why do I have to be gluten free?” pout. Then I drag out my bags of weird gluten free flours and tackle the recipe. This must-have prune cake came out so well that the famil gobbled it, even though they can eat all the glutaginous goodies they want. So for all you gf droolers, heere it is in a lighter version with a big nod to Ree and Grandma Iny.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CAKE:
  • 1 cup Pitted Prunes
  • ¾ cups Xylitol Or Other Sugar Substitute
  • ¾ cups Cup Cornstarch Or Tapioca Flour
  • ¾ cups Sweet Rice Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Allspice
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • ¾ cups Cup Canola Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • FOR SAUCE
  • ¾ cups Xylitol Or Other Sugar Substitute
  • ½ cups Buttermilk
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1 Tablespoon White Corn Syrup Or Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cups Butter
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla

Preparation

Cover prunes with water and boil until they’re soft; mash.

In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. Stir together oil, eggs. sugar substitute and vanilla. Combine gently with dry ingredients. Fold in buttermilk and mashed prunes. Bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes.

Before cake finishes baking, cook sauce in a 3 qt. saucepan. Cook and stir until the sauce is a light caramel color. Pour over warm cake. Hide from your family who can eat any dang thing they want.

Thanks for this recipe! I will be trying it soon. I have made the “normal” one from PW, but hubby is gluten free now. He will be excited to have his prune cake anyway! He has also eliminated dairy, so I will have to try a milk substitute.
