Gluten Free Almond Honey Cream Bread

I watched a foreign film recently and noticed the actress eating what appeared to be sandwich bread lathered with Almonds and fluffy on the inside. After some experimenting, I came up with this delicious pastry made with sliced Gluten Free bread! So scrumptious and hard to eat just one!


  • 8 oz. bag sliced Almonds
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 Loaf sliced Gluten Free Bread ( I prefer Canyon Bakehouse White) 
  • 1 cup homemade and prepared whipped cream 
  • 8 tablespoons melted butter


Mix together almonds, honey and corn syrup until almonds are covered and sticky enough to spread. Stir in 2 tablespoons melted butter and set aside.

Gently mix together whip cream and remaining melted butter leaving about 1 tablespoon for brushing bottoms. Set aside.

Lightly brush the bottom of a slice of bread and lay down on foiled cookie sheet butter side down. Repeat with half of the loaf leaving remaining half for tops.

Fill each bottom with a dollop of cream and spread evenly.

Spread almond mixture evenly onto remaining slices and place each top on cream filled bottom with almond side up, creating a sandwich.

Bake in 350ยบ oven for 30 minutes or until almonds have darkened and bread ends are a little crusty. 

Bread will absorb the cream leaving it moist and fluffy. Slices will stick together when cooled. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Persimmon Bread

I was introduced to Persimmons a few years ago and I am always trying to find new ways to use them. Here is a delicious GF bread recipe I perfected along the way!


• 1 3/4 cups 1:1 Gluten Free Flour Blend
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3 large ripe persimmons peeled and pureed
• 1/2 cup butter melted
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp pure vanilla or almond extract


Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8" loaf pan with cooking spray.

Whisk together the gluten free flour, salt and baking soda.

Add rest of ingredients to flour mixture and stir until combined, 

Bake for about 40 - 60 minutes, until golden brown and knife inserted comes out clean. 

Let cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. 

Enjoy!
