This is a great transitional recipe that crowds will love. No one will know it’s sugar and gluten free! Serve it up when family comes into town for a lovely brunch. This “half cake, half danish” treat does use a touch of regular cream cheese, so only try it out if you know you’re not sensitive to dairy! It’s really filling and utterly delicious with a cup of coffee.
