My mother-in-law has celiac so finding good gluten free recipes are important so she can participate in celebrations ( cause whats a holiday/birthday etc without sweets and baked goods?) I have a large family, and spending all the extra money for things like xanthum gum and coconut flour aren't really in my budget! This pat Thanksgiving I came across a recipe for Apple pie cake that called for a cake mix. Since King Arthur has the best products for baking I figured their Gluten free cake mix would be equally as good. It paid off! The recipe called for apples prepared for a pie( I used my favorite pie recipe and substituted a bit of KA AP flour I had in the freezer) and tossed the apples in the flour, sugar, cinnamon etc like I do for my apple pie. I followed the directions on the box for the KA gluten free yellow cake mix. I buttered a large cast iron skillet, placed the apples in the bottom in a single layer and poured the cake batter over them. Bake @ 375 till the edges pull away from the sides a bit and are golden brown. Allow to cool about 15 mins and dust with powdered sugar. It was one of the best cakes ever and you'd never know it was gluten free!! The kids were fighting over it, and my mother-in-law felt special since everyone was eating her desert with her
