Notes
Converting this Breakfast Bundt Cake into a gluten-free version is remarkably easy and doesn't sacrifice any flavor or texture. The main switch involves replacing the bread with your gluten-free bread. There are options that replicate the texture and sweetness of Hawaiian bread allowing you to savor the delightful contrast, with the savory elements. Additionally remember to review the labels, on your ham and hash browns as certain brands might include additives containing gluten.
