This is my all-time favorite kind of crumb cake! I use a gluten free flour mix, but still tastes the same as it did when I made it pre-celiac. I just love that you post so many recipes from my 'earlier years' and still enjoy today. What a treat, Linda! Thanks--Linda
p.s. this comment may show up on the caramel corn (also yummy)--sorry, I may have hit the wrong one. My bad.
Linda,
Thanks for the great comments. And glad for our readers to know they can still enjoy these treats gluten free! Thanks for the post.
Grandma Linda
