Delicious!

I have always been a big fan of cinnamon raisin bread. A great day starts with scrambled eggs and toasted gluten-free cinnamon raisin bread with cinnamon butter. There’s nothing like watching that cinnamon butter as it melts into the warm toast. Ummmm, so good! 

It’s fun to make an easy gluten-free recipe. Therefore, that leads me to this recipe for Cinnamon Raisin Custard Squares. 

 
To make this recipe gluten-free I recommend Udi’s Gluten-Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread. (Try not to snitch a piece as you cut it up – lol). 

Baking Pan

I used my Nonstick Square Brownie Bar Pan to bake these Gluten-Free Cinnamon Raisin Custard Squares. You can use the typical round muffin pan but I personally like the squares a little better. A loaf pan can also be used, however, remember that the baking time will be longer.

Glaze

These muffins smell so good while they are baking. I could hardly wait for them to cool. Although I did manage to refrain myself long enough to top them with a rum glaze. Either rum extract or actual rum alcohol can be used.

*Remember, not all alcoholic rum is gluten-free so be sure to do your homework. What I have discovered is that straight rum is almost always gluten-free but most spiced or flavored rum contains gluten. Always contact the manufacturer if you are in doubt. Most companies are happy to assist you.
