Thoughts
I liked it. I used a gluten-free flour mix for the topping (the original recipe is all gluten-free), which gave it its distinctive taste. It’s lighter than the other desserts I’ve made recently, which I appreciate. It’s quick to make, doesn’t feel heavy in the stomach, the ingredients are those I usually have on-hand, so I can see me making this again.
