My Dad was recently diagnosed with gluten intolerance. It has been challenging to find easy recipes that he likes, but I finally found a way to make a gluten-free cake that doesn't taste gluten-free!

Ingredients

  • cooking spray

Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Cake Batter:

  • 2 cups gluten-free flour blend

  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar

  • 3 eggs

  • ¾ cup milk

  • ½ cup melted butter

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare 2 loaf pans with cooking spray.

  2. Beat cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar, and cornstarch together in a small bowl until creamy and smooth.

  3. Beat flour blend, pumpkin puree, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs, milk, butter, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer set to Low until you have a thick batter.

  4. Pour about 1/4 of the batter into the bottom of each prepared loaf pan. Spread 1/2 the cream cheese filling over each batter portion. Divide remaining batter between the two pans and spread into an even layer.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake, not the filling, comes out clean, about 1 hour.

Cook's Note:

This can also be made in a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt(R)).
